Hi all! So our wedding was this past Saturday 7/6 and it was amazing! We just went through all the gifts and envelopes and we realized that 2 people didn’t give anything. No card no nothing! How do we handle this? Do we send a thank you card?

This is how I feel! A card is necessary, no matter what it contains.

Especially if you had a big wedding, 2 is a pretty good number!
Send the thank you cards out, they came and celebrated with you, which is what you are thanking everyone for! Plus you typically have 2 weeks after a wedding to send a gift. Sending a thank you card will probably be a quick reminder for them if they meant to send something and forgot, or you not mentioning something specific will tip them off if they did send something and you didn't receive it, they'll be able to ask if you got it.
Even if they just don't plan on sending anything, some people really just don't know wedding etiquette. I can think of a loooooot of single college guys, be it friends or close family (cough cough, my brothers), that I know I proooobably won't be seeing anything from. They just don't know, they don't have a lot of wedding experience!

I didn't do anything. I only wrote thank you cards to those who either helped or gave a gift
