Yes, you write them separately. They made the effort to get two gifts, you do two.

They were two separate gifts for two separate occasions. I think you should write two. They will appreciate it. Look at it this way, if you just write one, you may offend or you may not. If you write two, you will either fulfill expectations or exceed them. I think its better safe than sorry.

No, you need to send a separate thank you note for each gift. After all, your guests spent time attending and shopping for each gift. Send the shower thank you now or ASAP and then the wedding thank you notes as soon after the wedding as possible but withing a few weeks.

Writing two would show your appreciation for your personal gifts, and yours and your husband’s appreciation for your joint gifts. My answer is two thank you notes.

It is customary to write a thank you note for each gift given. The wedding and shower are two separate occasions and two separate gifts.

You should write two, as they were two separate occasions. It seems silly, I know, but one should come from just you (with a shower theme) and one should come from you and your future husband (wedding theme).

Happy writing!

Eddiquite dictated you should write 2 notes, but if this was “just the girls getting together” and you you happened to get a few personal gifts, then you could probably get away with one.

Since you were concerned enough to even ASK us, I say go with your gut, you will know what to do.

I think you should write separate thank yous because you’ll want to thank them for attending each function as well as thanking them for the gift.
