Question

Do you send Thank-you notes for cash and or gift cards received as "wedding gifts?

Answer 1

Yes, you say something like:

Dear So and So,

Thank you for making our wedding so special and thank you for your gracious cash gift. we hope to use it toward a down payment on a house.

Love,

You

Always tell the guest how you will be using the cash or gift card they gave you...

Answer 2

DEFINITELY!!  Also, in the thank you note, you let them know what their hard-earned cash/gift card will probably be used for!!

Answer 3

Yes. Why are you putting "wedding gifts" in quotes? Those are obviously gifts and cost the people money. How rude can you get?

We are sending thank you cards and what we used the money and gift cards for. The cash was easy - part of the money was spent on our honeymoon, so one person will get a picture of us Zip Lining. We haven't spent our gift cards yet (just got back), but will send an idea of what we think we are using them for (as in "we are planning on getting new curtains, which we really need, with your gift card - thank you so much!")

Answer 4

of course!

Answer 5

Yes you should send thank you notes for anything you received as a gift.  Just write thank you so much for the money/gift card.  We are planning on buying ______ with it.  Or thank you so much for your generosity we really appreciate it and plan to _____ with it.   Hope this helps you.  We got alot of that too and that is what I put in our thank you notes.

Answer 6

Yes of course you do.Both.

Answer 7

Yes.

You could put a little note, something like this:

Dear the Smith family,

We are so pleased that you were able to join us to celebrate our marriage on (insert date here). We would also like to thank you very much for your generous gift, which we plan to put towards (insert item here- e.g. our honeymoon, furnishing our house, etc.).

Love,

John and Mary Jones.

Answer 8

ABSOLUTELY!

Its still a gift.

Answer 9

YES! Of course! Why wouldn't you? Many brides and grooms would rather all their guests went that route so if you get a lot, it's probably because you have considerate guests.

Answer 10

Yes of course, you thank them for their monetary gift and for being so generous and kind.

Answer 11

Well..if I didn't send a thank you for cash gifts NO ONE would have received a thank you at all, since cash was the only gift people gave us.  So of course you send a thank you for cash gifts.  As a matter of fact, everyone who attended your wedding, whether they gave you any kind of gift or none at all, should receive a thank you for sharing your special day.  

Answer 12

yeah a gift is a gift..they spent money or gave money so what does it matter if it's cash or a gift card?  I would be offended if I gave someone cash or a gift card and I didn't get a thank you!

Answer 13

You send thank you cards for every gift you receive no matter what it is.

Answer 14

YES!

Someone took the time to give you a blessing of THERE hard earned money, the least you can do is be respectful and send a thank you note. It should be treated just like any other "wedding gift"

Answer 15

Yes. Don't forget to send thank yous to the people who attended but didn't give any type of gift as well.
