A preprinted card came through the post today saying 'thank you for the lovely wedding gift, it was very kind of you' and the new d.i.l. has written: thank you very much for the very generous amount you gave us. love (and their names)
They had said in a note attached to the invitations that they had all they need at home so no need for gifts but if people wished to do something," monetary contributions would be the best gift for us" but not to feel obliged to do so.

I would have thought a little letter would have been nicer especially for the parents and because it was quite a large cheque.

Oh well, back to reality! Have his white shirt (as requested by the couple to go with the tie they provided) in the wash, next time he wears that will be a funeral or something I expect, no more weddings in the pipeline! It isn't something he wears often and the suit will be hung away with the other one he only wore a few times.
