    I'm still stressing about my wedding and it was over 2 months ago. Bees I need help/advice on how to fix my mistake. 

    I was feeling great after I sent all of my thank you cards out. Felt so accomplished. Yeah! (That didn't last long.) My husband gets a phone call from someone, thanking us for the thank you card.  This person also informs my husband that he was at the wedding!  I sent him a thank you card and said "sorry you couldn't be there...." Needless to say, I FEEL HORRIBLE about this mistake. Before I wrote out the card, I even asked my husband if this person was there, and my husband said he didn't remember seeing him. I thought the same thing, so that's why I sent the thank you card, stating sorry we missed you at the wedding. 

    Bees, what can I do to fix this mistake. Has anyone else done this? My husband sees this person often; I plan to apologize to him the next time I see him.  But I want to do more. I even thought about sending another card, apologizing and thanking him for being at the wedding,  but I feel like that's cheesy. 

    Of course my husband said to not worry about it, but I still feel horrible. 

    Help!

    You could always play it off like it was the wrong name on the wrong card?  I know I get confused like that sometimes!

    Doesn't seem like a huge deal, especially if you had a very large wedding (and he didn't sign the guest book, I presume?)  Perhaps you just send another card apologizing for the goof and thanking him for being part of the special day.  Just laugh it off and try not to get too upset with yourself.

    Was his name on the INSIDE of the thank you card?  If not, then you can always say you must have mixed up the cards w/ someone elses!  Otherwise I would just ignore it - don't draw too much attention to the mistake, everyone will forget about it shortly!
