| The gift isn't a cover charge to make up for all the food you're providing.You send a Thank You card, because it is polite to thank someone when you are given a gift. |

| you do it out of respect. They were nice enough to get you a gift, so it is polite to take a couple minutes out of your day to formally thank them. |

| Because it is good manners to be appreciative of a gift. Especially a wedding gift. That's really mandatory good etiquette. Other instances would be a wedding shower. With a birthday party I think a "thank you very much" would be enough. But when I receive birthday gifts in the mail, I always send a thank-you card. |

| Well first of all it lets the person know you actually got the gift - many gifts are sent mail order through the registry processI have sent gifts before and weeks later - I'm like wondering - did they get it? - is it lost in the mail? Then I have to start finding it and its unbelievably rude to track the package and find out that they recieved it and never bothered to let me know Its rude, selfish, lazy - do I need to go on?The reception is not a rewards process - in other words, it is a celebration and all of my family friends are invited - that celebration is in no way linked to the giftsThe gifts are a way for people to help a couple start out on their life together - in more primitive societies, the gift might be land or livestock - in ours, its towels, plates, kitchen items, etc. You need to thank those people who are setting you out on your way together |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
