Thank you notes have become something of a lost art. Not that long ago, you wrote thank you notes for just about anything; it was simply what was expected in polite society. Now, we only tend to write them for special occasions where a simple text will not do. One of those occasions? Your wedding.

So if your big day is coming up and you are starting to panic about writing those notes, it is understandable; chances are you don’t have too much practice.

To help, read our guide on how to write a thank you note below.

Start with a Greeting

For the most part, a thank you note is not all that different from other forms of written correspondence. Even if everything has been email for you for some time, think back to lessons from elementary school on letter writing. Start with a kind greeting, such as “dear,” and be sure to use the correct form and spelling of the recipient’s name.

Say Thank You

It sounds obvious, but it is tempting to dive right into explaining how thankful you are. Before you get into the note, start with those two, simple words: Thank you.

Get into the Details

But don’t ramble. If they gave you a picture frame, you can tell them it is now displayed and what picture you put in it. If they gave you some plates, let them know that you have already served some of your first meals as a married couple on them. Just don’t go on and on about the story behind the picture or the recipes you used.

Say Thank You Again

As you wrap things up, let them know once more how much you appreciate the gift and their thoughtfulness. Then, say thank you once more, and end the letter with your regards.
