This applies to most thank you notes, regardless of the reason that you\u2019re writing it.

Start with a salutation.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may seem obvious, but generally you\u2019ll want to start your thank you message by addressing your recipient with a salutation. How formal or informal you choose to make this should depend on a few factors.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re well acquainted with your recipient and it\u2019s not a formal thank you card (like a business interaction) then you may be fine addressing them by their first name. For example, if you\u2019re writing to your college roommate to thank them for all the great memories &#8212; it\u2019s likely safe to use their first name.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For people you\u2019re not quite as familiar with, stick to Mr. and Mrs. Last name.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dear Aunt Jody &amp; Uncle Max,<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Johnny!<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dear Mr. and Mrs. Jones,<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dear Ms. Donnett,<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block-blurb\">\n    <p>Use code GUIDE and get 20% off personal thank you notes printed, addressed, and mailed for you!<\/p>\n    <div class=\"button-cta\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/cards\/thank-you\/general\" target=\"\u201c_blank\u201d\" rel=\"\u201cnofollow noopener\" noopener=\"\">See thank you cards!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

This question is actually not as tricky as it sounds. Whenever someone has done something nice for you like presenting you with a gift or going out of their way to help you, it\u2019s definitely worth writing them a thank you card. No, sending a thank you text message is most definitely not the same thing.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course there are actual occasions when thank you notes are basically expected, but huge life changing events are not the only time a thank you note is called for. In fact, the more surprising the thank you note is &#8212; the more special it will make your recipient feel. Below are some good solid reasons to mail a thank you note, but don\u2019t let that limit you&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When in doubt &#8212; write that thank you card!&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your cousin tutored you in Spanish after your last failed exam.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After a job interview.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your neighbors helped you carry your groceries.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your bestie brought you hot soup when you were ill.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The list of reasons is endless, but here are <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/when-should-you-send-thank-you-cards\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">29<\/span><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.postable.com\/blog\/when-should-you-send-thank-you-cards\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> everyday reasons that you require a thank you note.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"when\">Special occasions when thank you notes are expected.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the reasons listed above are more everyday non-official type reasons to write thank you notes, there are special occasions when these little notes of gratitude are expected.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Weddings\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bridal showers<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engagement gifts<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baby showers<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Baby gifts<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sweet sixteen birthday gifts<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bar Mitzvah gifts<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bat Mitzvah gifts<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Graduation gifts<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"baby\">Baby shower and newborn thank you card etiquette.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From diaper cakes to a helping hand, your friends and family have done all they can to make your life as a new mom and dad as smooth of a transition as possible.
