Royal Wedding Thank You Notes

Did you watch the Royal Wedding? The bride was breathtaking, the ceremony was majestic and the whole country (and the world) celebrated.

In reading a bit about the day, I learned that there would be 600 people attending the reception. I almost fell out of my chair! How many thank you notes is this new Princess going to have to write? Did she have a bridal shower, too? (Can’t you just see the Queen and Camilla playing Bridal Bingo?)

If I knew where to mail it, I’d send her a copy of my book, The Organized Bride’s Thank You Note Handbook. If anyone needs it–it’s her! Then I thought–not only do I not know their address, I have no idea what their last name is. Harry goes by ‘The Duke of Sussex.’ What is Meghan’s new last name?

Well–it seems as if the Royal family doesn’t use traditional last names. So since I am unsure as to where to mail her a copy of my book, I’ll offer some royal wedding thank you note organizing tips in the hopes that Meghan will one day be surfing the web for thank you note writing ideas and happen upon this blog of a commoner.

OK, Meghan. Read carefully…

• Create a Royal Spreadsheet for tracking gifts. Remember to include a column for writing the date your thank you note was put in the mail.

• Use Royal Scrap Paper to jot down ideas before writing your thank you note message. This will save you from making mistakes on your very expensive note cards

• Pace yourself. Write 3-5 royal wedding thank you notes a day and then meet Harry at the pub.

• Get Harry involved. Send him to the post office for ‘Love’ stamps after work. Have him lick the envelopes at the pub. Once the media finds out, every British bride will be after their husbands to be just like yours.

I wish you the best of luck. If you need me, I’ll take a break from polishing my tiara…
