Summary: Useful Advice and Etiquette; Cheesy wording suggestions
Comment: I thought this book had good advice and tips on thank you note writing, but I found I really couldn't use any of the sample thank you notes. They sound so phony to me - and if someone sent me a thank you note borrowing their language, I would fall off my chair laughing. The book has notes something like: "we adore the salad bowl you gave us and have filled it with floating candles and put it on the table so we can enjoy it every day!" I trust that others have found this book useful (mine is the only bad review here so far) but it just misses the mark for me, overall.

Summary: A mix of helpful and outdated information.
Comment: This slim 96 page volume offers some helpful advice but is coupled with unnecessary and outdated information. In the first 30 pages, the author addresses basic information such as who should write thank you notes, when they should be sent, and what kind of stationary to use. I'm assuming that most of today's brides would already have this knowledge, but for someone looking for very elementary assitance, this section could be useful. I found the fourth chapter, "General Outline," to be the most practical aspect of the book. In this chapter, the author provides a basic outline for all thank you notes and gives specific examples for each component; particularly helpful were the list of adjectives as well as the list of ways to describe how the gift will be used. Following this, the author answers some additional questions (eg, don't tell the giver when you receive a damaged gift), and then finally, the remainder of the book contains sample letters which are broken down into specific categories (monetary gift, thank yous to specific wedding participants, unusual gifts, etc.). Although somewhat repetitive, the letters did offer some additional useful ideas about writing notes. Overall, this book is a bit uneven in its utility, but given its low price, it would probably be a worthwhile investment for most brides.

Summary: You need this book!
Comment: Even if you are great at writing thank you notes, you can benefit from this book! You will be exhausted after your wedding, and this little book will ease your mind. It's great for getting ideas on how to write your thank you cards, with plenty of examples to page through and lots of advice on etiquette. I highly recommend this to any stressed-out bride.
