Ex's wedding - send card or not

9 replies

ExH is father of my three kids and I see him regularly. Things are amiable mostly...

I wanted to send a card to wish them the best and this is genuine.

Will it come across weird ? I wondered if it might be something they wouldn't like as a reminder of the past.

Thoughts ?

Send a card but keep it simple.

An ordinary card, a brief message. The sort you'd open and just think "how nice", stick it in the pile and not think about again.

No overblown congratulations, no trying to buy the nicest card... Just something ordinary.

Yes, keep it nice and simple.
‘Congratulations on your wedding and best wishes’. Something like that written on a not to over the top nor too cheap card.

I'd send a card.

My exh will marry at some point. I'll send a card.

Sounds fine to me

Thank you. Helpful to check! I'd like to think I'm a decent ex wife and don't cause any issues but good to validate!

Given you are amicable I'd send a card and get one for the kids to give too.

I think that's nice op.

Of course that's fine. My mum and dad sent each other cards for their subsequent weddings!
