Alright, so, my wedding was a few weeks ago, and let me tell you, it was a whirlwind! I mean, planning a wedding is no joke. There are so many details to figure out, so many things that can go wrong. Honestly, I was a bit of a mess through most of it. But you know who kept me sane? My amazing wedding organizer, Sarah. She was a lifesaver!
Now that the dust has settled and I’ve had some time to reflect, I knew I had to properly thank her. A simple “thanks” just didn’t seem like enough. I mean, this woman coordinated an entire event, dealt with all the vendors, and made sure everything ran smoothly on the big day. She even handled a minor crisis when the florist almost delivered the wrong flowers!
So, how do you thank someone who basically made your dream wedding a reality? I thought about a few options.
My Thank-You Mission
- A nice gift? Sure, but what do you get someone who’s seen it all in the wedding industry?
- A big tip? We already tipped her, but again, it didn’t feel like enough.
- Just saying “thank you” in person? Of course, but I wanted to do something more.
Then it hit me. A heartfelt message expressing my gratitude. That’s what I needed to do. I thought about sending her a hand written thank you card, but it seemed a little bit out of fashion. So I decided to send her an email.
I sat down and really thought about everything Sarah had done for us. I drafted an email, letting her know how much her hard work and dedication meant to us. I mentioned specific things she did that went above and beyond.
I wrote about how she kept me calm during the planning process, how she handled all the little details that I would have never thought of, and how she made sure our wedding day was absolutely perfect. I told her that we couldn’t have done it without her and that we would be forever grateful.
I poured my heart into that email, and when I was done, I felt so much better. It was important to me that Sarah knew how much we appreciated her. I sent the email, and she responded the next day, saying how much it meant to her.
It felt good to properly express my gratitude. Sometimes, a sincere and heartfelt message is the best way to say “thank you.” And I feel like my wedding organizer truly deserved it.
