Question
Hello,

Two things.  One person from the wedding either gave a card for a present or didn't.....if I ask then I feel rude but if I don't ask then I can't really write a proper thank you card.  What do I do?
Then there is another set of friends who said they have a card for us but who haven't given it to us...eventhough we have seen them a couple times since the wedding.  Do I not mention it and just wait for the card or should I say something?

Answer
No! Do not bring it up. Sometimes people have good intentions but either forget or maybe don't really have something for you even though they planned to. As for the gifts, send thank you notes for what you got and know who it's from. There's no way of knowing if there's no card so that's just the way it is! If anyone asks, simply explain there was no card attached. You don't have time to play detective. I hope this helps ;)

I am really interested in weddings, and seeing as I planning my own,and I have planned others, I know a lot about this subject. Ask me about anything from what colors to use or if you should invite kids or whatnot. I can give tips on the reception, food, or the ceremony, anything from A to Z, ask away!

Attend bridal shows to see the latest trends, and have planned weddings for others.
