the task of writing thank you cards
Crafting the perfect wedding thank you card messages
Your wedding day has come and gone, leaving you with cherished memories and grateful hearts. Now it's time to show your appreciation to your guests with beautifully crafted wedding thank you cards. We understand that writing dozens of heartfelt, personalised messages can be a daunting task, especially after the whirlwind of planning and hosting your wedding. At Utterly Printable, we're here to help you navigate this final step with ease and grace.
Short and Snappy: The Benefits of Brevity
Sometimes, less is more. Short and sweet messages can be just as heartfelt as longer ones, with the added advantage of saving you time and effort. Here are five examples of simple yet meaningful messages to include in your wedding thank you cards:
-
1. "Thank you for making our special day even more memorable with your presence and generosity."
-
2. "Your love and support mean the world to us. Thank you for sharing our wedding day!"
-
3. "We're so grateful for your thoughtful gift and the warm wishes you shared on our big day."
-
4. "Thank you for being part of our happily ever after. Your friendship means everything to us."
-
5. "With sincere gratitude for your love, laughter, and kindness on our wedding day."
Longer Messages: Drawing on Wedding Memories
If you prefer to write longer, personalised messages, consider reflecting on the unique elements of your wedding that made it special. Was there a particular moment or experience you shared with the guest? Incorporate these memories into your message to make it extra meaningful. Here's an example message for a fictional wedding:
-
"Dear [Guest's Name],
-
We cannot thank you enough for joining us on our special day and for the beautiful [gift item] you so kindly gifted us.
-
Your presence at our ceremony made the moment even more magical, and we'll never forget the joy of dancing the night away with you during the reception. You guys are so much fun.
-
We're incredibly grateful for your love, friendship, and support as we begin our journey as a married couple.
-
With heartfelt thanks,
-
[Your Names]"
Printed Messages: Choosing the Right Words
Some couples opt for a pre-printed message in their wedding thank you cards to maintain consistency and save time. Here are a few examples of heartfelt printed messages:
-
1. "We are deeply grateful for your presence, love, and generosity on our wedding day. Thank you for making it unforgettable!"
-
2. "Our hearts are filled with joy and gratitude. Thank you for celebrating with us and for your thoughtful gift."
These can make your life A LOT easier. They can save you a large amount of hand cramp too. You can drop personalised printed messages into any of our wedding thank you card designs. Just click the text box to get started! And don’t forget, you can always go for the hybrid approach of printed message plus handwritten thought. This has the best of both worlds!
