Thank You?
CourtneyBrittain in Etiquette and Advice, on August 4, 2019 at 2:28 PM

Is it bad to hand deliver a thank you note? We got gifts from a couple of FH’s coworkers that aren’t invited and we don’t have their addresses. Could he just hand deliver thank you notes to them?

Bridal Shower Shoes?
CourtneyBrittain in Parties and Events, on July 27, 2019 at 12:53 PM

Shower shoes - which would you choose? I have the white dress and am debating between nude or floral heels. They’re equal comfort and height, help! It’s an indoor afternoon shower.
