When do you send thank you notes for the shower gifts??? After the shower or after the wedding??

Indeed, after the shower...Not only is it proper etiquette, but it will save YOU from doing double the work in one sitting:)

My bridal shower was only one week before my wedding. I didn`t have the time to get them out before the wedding with all the last minute details to take care of. It took me alot of time because I ended up doing all the thank you notes at once and it took forever.
My new MIL told me that I had to mail the shower ones first and wait 2 weeks more to mail the others because of ettiquette reasons. I guess I broke the rules by not having mailed them before the wedding.
