Writing Thank Yous - people who gave gift previously, send another thank you for attending?

I had a similar situation! Personally I wasn’t going to write a 2nd thank you to them since I sent one right after I received their gift

I don’t think you need to since you already thanked them for the gift.

Personally I would just because I also want my guests to know what I am thankful for them attending the wedding and not just the gift.

No, just send a thank you for gifts.

We are sending out a “we moved” post card and a thank you on that after the wedding ❤️

Nope just send one thank you for the gift! It’s good to get ahead and send the ones that arrive before the wedding when you receive them to prevent yourself from having to do so many after the wedding

We didn’t. If they sent their gift ahead of time, we went ahead and sent the thank you and didn’t write another one for attending. In most of the pre-wedding thank you’s, we wrote something like “we can’t wait to celebrate with you on October 5th” or something similar.

If you want to write a brief note or letter to people for coming, do NOT write it on thank you cards, and wait til thank you cards are all done.
It is backwards for you to thank your guests. The guests thank the hosts, for providing the wonderful social event. Usually, people who are guests at a party, special dinner or other occasion, either bring a hostess gift, small item like candy, wine, whatever, Or they write a note to the hosts, thanking them, a few days later. With weddings, because it is customary for everyone to give a major gift, most often sent before or after the wedding, guest are excused from writing an additional thank you note, by convention. Their gift and card with best wishes for the couple, are enough. But any guest who does not give the traditional gift, should still write a thank you note to the couple/ hosts, thanking them for inviting them, providing great food and drink, music, lovely setting, good company. Host provides the party. Guest says thank
you. What many people mistakenly do, is write thank you notes to people for coming. Wrong. That is like handing someone a gift. Then thanking them for taking it and enjoying it. ... The proper thing is to tell people you are happy to see them, at the wedding. And as hosts, to write thank you notes for gifts, or major favors or services people did for you . No other thank you notes.

I don't think there needs to be two
