Wedding Gifts

What do you do when you receive wedding gifts before the wedding?

I am getting married in just under 2 months and today we received our first gift. It came wrapped but there was a packing slip in the box so we know what it is, and thankfully that also said who it was from! What I am wondering is do we open it and and immediately write a thank you note? Do we leave it wrapped until the wedding pretend we don’t know what it is? Then write the note after the wedding. Or do we open it now then send the thank you note after the wedding?

open it – admire it – immediately sit down and write your thank you card and put it in the mail! if you do your cards as your gifts come you won’t find it to be so time consuming.
happy wedding!!!!

edit: if you don’t send a card til after the wedding then the couple sending the gift will be wondering for the next two months if you received it at all – its better to send the card immediately so they know the courier delivered it on time.
