? about gifts received before the shower.
what do you do if someone sends you a gift with a note saying they won't be able to make it to the shower? the package came to my house and the items inside weren't wrapped...do i just send a Thank you now? or should I just wait until after the shower to send all thank you's at the same time? I'm friends with this person on FB too...do i acknowledge it at all, or wait?

Re: ? about gifts received before the shower.
I see no reason why you should have to wait to open and acknowledge the gift. If your shower is not a secret than I'd definitely just open it and thank her for it and tell her that your sorry she won't be there. That's my opinion.

Re: ? about gifts received before the shower.
This happened to me as well. I had my thank you notes already, so I just wrote them out early to those who sent early gifts, thanked them and said that I would have loved to have seen them at the shower and that they would be missed sort of thing.

I sent them right away....otherwise you face the "did you get my gifts?" question - and I always feel bad that I wasn't quicker to show my appreciation.

I sent thank you's right away for the gifts I got before my shower. A couple people sent gifts before my shower and at my shower as well and they just got thank you'd twice.
