Thank You Notes For Smaller Events?


For the most part, it doesn’t really occur to people to write thank you notes to party hosts. Of course after a wedding or big party, the guest of honor feels obligated to write thank you cards to everyone who helped and attended the event. The question is whether a thank you note is necessary after a smaller event, such as a Bachelorette Party.

While some may think a thank you note after smaller events is not a requirement, we politely disagree. Why shouldn’t you thank the person who spent days, weeks, and maybe even months planning the party?

Planning the perfect Bachelorette Party can be extremely time-consuming and expensive. That is why the answer to this sometimes controversial question is always “yes”. The Maid of Honor or in some cases a best friend or family member that throws you your last single rendezvous deserves a huge thank you. Although you may say thank you many times in person, taking the time to write a personalized thank you note shows how grateful you really are and that you recognize how much thought and effort went in to planning your special event. As a Bachelorette Party planning expert, I personally know from experience the level of organization, thoughtfulness, patience and creativity that goes into planning each individual event. These thank you notes don’t need to be pages long just something short, sweet, and to the point. Check out the example below.

Dear Brook,

Thank you so much for planning my amazing weekend with all of the girls before my wedding day. You are the best maid of honor and sister anyone could ask for. All the memories we had throughout last weekend will last me a lifetime. I can’t thank you enough for spending so much time creating the perfect bachelorette party for me.

Love You!
Kiki
