With a bit of thoughtful planning and designing, you’ll be on your way to breathtaking thank you cards in no time.

Stay Organized

An organized wedding is a happy wedding. Check out these top organization tips and wedding thank you card ideas to make writing and mailing your wedding thank you cards much easier:

Keep a Wedding Journal

Whether you choose a pretty spiral notepad, an electronic folder, or a full-on organized binder, keeping all your wedding planning in one place can make all the difference. No matter your organizational method, make a gift log tab to keep a list of your gifts in one place.

Did you have an exceptional experience during your wedding events? For example, maybe your dress-fitting consultant went above and beyond to make your time magical. Use this space to log any services or experiences you’d like to extend your gratitude for with a thank you card. Sending thank you cards to those who provided excellent service can be the icing on the cake after your wedding.

Recruit Your Bridesmaids For Help

Ask your bridesmaids to help you stay organized with bridal shower and wedding gift lists during your festivities. Keeping a list of gifts you received will help you create a heartfelt thank you card later. This is the perfect job to recruit one of your bridesmaids for help.

Selecting Your Card

Once you have a game plan for a list of wedding thank you card recipients, selecting the perfect card is your next step. With a vast selection of thoughtfully-designed wedding thank you cards, you’re sure to find the perfect one on Mixbook.

Set Your Intentions

The first step to creating a beautiful wedding thank you card is to set your goals and intentions for your project. Decide which features are most important for your goals. Do you want to display your favorite wedding photos? Do you want space to write a handwritten note on each card? Make a list of your top goals and keep them in mind as you make selections.

Coordinate With Your Wedding Theme

For the ultimate curated look, select a card design that invokes memories of your wedding decor. Mixbook’s wedding thank you card page lets you quickly filter by color to find the perfect match.

Select Wedding Photos

Your wedding thank you card is the perfect place to share your amazing wedding photography with your friends and family. Highlight your favorite photo with a single-photo card, or select a photo collage card template to display more than one photo. A photo wedding thank you card will delight your friends and family.

Wedding Thank You Card Ideas to Impress

Order Multiple, Personalized Designs

Having trouble narrowing down the perfect photo? Consider ordering multiple thank you card designs to customize for each recipient group. Create a beautiful card with a photo of all your bridesmaids on a card template highlighting their dress colors. Curate one card design for your bridesmaids, one for the groomsmen, and one for each side of the family, just for a few examples.

Your recipients will have a truly upgraded experience opening a thoughtful card designed just for them. Think of the joy your grandmother will receive when she opens a thank you card customized with a photo of the two of you together. Your words of gratitude become even more meaningful with a personalized card.

Curate Coordinating Designs on All Wedding Correspondence

To make your wedding thank you cards extra special, coordinate all your wedding correspondence with the same design. Mixbook’s Wedding Collection makes it easy. Select a design you love and find coordinating designs for all your wedding supplies:

Select a Real Foil Card for Added Sparkle

Give your thank you cards a special touch by choosing a real foil card. Metallic foil adds texture and shine to your card. You can find foil cards in gold, rose gold, and silver to match your wedding theme.

Include a Handwritten Note

There’s nothing like the heartfelt sentiment of a handwritten note. Although writing a letter on each note will take some effort, customizing each card with a handwritten thank you note is well worth the time for the beauty your guests will receive. Mixbook’s wedding thank you card designs include space for a handwritten note enclosed inside or on the back to make it simple.
