To not send a wedding present thank you card

We were married last September, no registry so we got a mix of cash, vouchers and decorative homewares. A few people gave us nothing which was fine.

At Christmas we saw a couple who said they had a present for us, but forgot to bring it to the wedding and forgot to bring it with them that day. We also saw them in January and no present, so I assumed nothing was actually coming.

AIBU to not send a thank you note? I used up all the cards I ordered so I would have to place another order for a minimum of 20 cards, also I am a little annoyed at how many times they forgot it.
