Thank you card question...etiquette question
I had a shower a couple of weeks ago. I had three ladies host it, and I purchased a gift for each of them, wrote a thank you card, and gave them these items before the shower that day. Each hostess purchased a different "gift" except one. She didn't give me a gift (which is perfectly fine, and not the issue at all). The question is should I write her another Thank You Card and mail it? The shower was lovely, food, etc. And I really appreciate everything each of them did. Just didn't know the "rule" or thought on this.
TIA

well, i'll be the dissenter and say i wouldn't. you already gave her a note and gift for what she did for you. like you don't expect her to write you a thank you for the hostess gift?
i think there can be a another side where the thanks get to actually be too much. for example, i brought a hostess gift to a dinner and got a thank you note for it. it was weird- i gave the gift as a thank you and now i am getting thanked for saying thanks? it wasn't anything big but i do think that bringing something when someone is hosting you is nice and good etiquette- not something you owe me a thank you for.
