recently we have been to 2 evening receptions and not received thankyou cards for our gifts. Have to say both weddings were for people we knew years ago and haven't kept in touch, was surprised to be invited actually, they said a quick hello when we arrived and i expected to have a quick chat again later but that didn't happen and i understand there was alot of people but they didn't really mix just sat with the same table.
It all adds up attending weddings, babysitters, taxis, gifts, drinks, outfits, grooming(ok so new outfit and grooming not essential). I'm beginning to wonder whether to accept other invites if they aren't close friends. I did lots of running about finding a perfect gift and its almost like we were invited just for the gift and to make up numbers.
Is this the norm nowadays, not to send a thankyou?

Do people not send thankyou cards anymore?
