Addressing Thank You Cards for a Bridal Shower

5. If the guest is not married but lives with her SO, but only signed her name, do you thank both of them or just her?

Thanks for the advice. As little as it may matter to some, I want to make sure to thank everyone appropriately.

Wooooah there, don't overthink this. Write it to whoever came. Or gave the gift. Address it the same way, to whoever came/gave the gift. If the gift was from both people, address/write the thank you to both people. Simple Doesn't need to be formal. Return address should be both your names and address. Also, keep in mind, most people won't even notice or think twice about the envelope or how it was addressed, they'll only focus on the card.

I just sent thank yous to the people who were at the shower, so the women only.

They can be informally written.

The return address just included my name. I put it on the front. The thank yous were signed "love BMG and DH" (just our names)

1. Thank whoever signed the card.

2. If they both signed but do not live together, send it to the woman's address since she is the one who actually came to your shower.

3. You are over thinking this. Address them however you feel comfortable.

4. Return address goes in the top left corner, just like most letters. You can put your name, both names or no names. The purpose of the return address is for the post office to be able to send it back to you if it cannot be delivered. I would put my name, but they are all valid options.

5. Same as 1. Thank whoever signed the card.

ETA: fixed typos

Wow this is helpful, thanks for the post!

Write it to whoever signed the card. I also had a female only shower, but some guests signed their name and their husband's name so I addressed those thank you cards to both people.
