Building A Thank You Note
Formal thank you etiquette dictates that a hand written note is required. The notion is that the gift giver took the time and cared enough to purchase you a gift; you can easily show your gratitude by sending a personal thank you note. A phone call or email is not considered appropriate mediums for communicating your thanks so let us begin!
Salutation – “Dear Mr. & Mrs. Smith”…this section is pretty selfexplanatory! The 1st Sentence – Begin with yourself and your spouse to let the reader know who is writing and thanking them! “Dan and I would like to thank you” The 2nd Sentence – Mention the gift received and use descriptive words to tell the gift giver what you think of the gift. Appropriate words are: appropriate, generous, beautiful, charming, elegant, lovely, perfect, special, unique, useful. The 3rd Sentence – Tell the gift giver how you plan to use the gift in your home or life. If a monetary gift was received, do not repeat the amount, or whether it was cash or cheque. An example of how to thank a gift giver for a monetary gift is as follows: “Your generous gift is much appreciated. We have earmarked it for our home improvement fund” The 4th Sentence – Thank the person again and include a personal note about your relationship with them, or a special moment shared on your wedding day. An example follows: Thank you again for your gift Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and for celebrating on the dance floor along side us on our special day. ” The final Sentence – End your thank you note with a heartfelt and sincere closing. Some options include: “Fondly,” “Best Regards,” “Sincerely,” “Cordially,” “Love,”

Remember!
Write your cards promptly after you receive your gifts. 1 month is ideal, 3 months is pushing it! Be sincere and speak in your own voice. Avoid language that does not reflect your sentiments or your natural speaking style, as your message may be perceived as forced or insincere.
