To think they didn't get the present?

Over the summer, my husband and toddler went to a very fancy wedding abroad. To cut a long story short it was a difficult and expensive journey there and we made a massive effort to go. Due to the expense, we got them a bottle of fizz as a present. We normally give cash but just couldn't afford it.

I've just received thank you card and there is no mention of the gift. We left the bottle out on the present table but I forgot to label it. I did write a reference to it in the card though.
I don't really mind that they haven't thanked us specifically for it but I'm concerned that they didn't get it ( or didn't realise it was from us) and think we're rude for not giving them anything!

What should I do? I'd hate for them to think that we didn't get them anything but then I feel awkward about bringing it up in case they did get it.

They've probably written generic cards as it was too difficult to match each gift up and mention it in each thank you card.
Either that or they didn't realise it was from you as it wasn't tagged.
Or they didn't get it.
I really wouldn't worry about it. If £100 had gone missing it would be different but unless it was a very expensive bottle of fizz I'd just leave it.
Im sure they appreciated you attending even if they didn't get the gift, hence the thank you card.
