βCommon Questions
Q.Should I mention why my wishes are belated?
While a brief, sincere apology for the delay is good, avoid lengthy explanations or excuses. Keep it concise and shift the focus quickly to your genuine good wishes for the couple. A simple "Forgive my tardiness" or "So sorry these wishes are late" is usually sufficient.
Q.Is it still appropriate to send a wedding gift if my wishes are very late?
Absolutely! It's generally considered acceptable to send a wedding gift up to a year after the wedding, and often even longer, especially for close family. The gesture shows you care. You can include a note reiterating your belated wishes with the gift.
Q.How do I make my belated wishes sound sincere and not just an afterthought?
Focus on genuine emotions. Express your joy, love, and excitement for their new chapter. Use personal touches if appropriate, recalling a shared memory or expressing specific hopes for their future. The sincerity of your words will shine through, regardless of the delay.
