| Couples should be ready to write and mail their thank you notes for wedding gifts within a month of their wedding. Most guests have spent plenty on the gift, the clothing they've worn to the wedding, and sometimes have travel and hotel expenses. To not receive a thank you note is tacky and selfish |
