Who should I send Christmas cards to 8 months after our wedding?
We got married this year on leap day and ended up sending out over 100 thank you cards.
Should we also use this list for Christmas cards or is this over-kill? Usually I send out 20-30 cards. Maybe I should just stick to the usual list. I hand make all my Christmas cards, so I'd rather do 20-30 than 100!
Stick to the 20 or 30. Especially if you hand make them. I like to hand make mine too. You could also just go buy some cards for other people and then just send the handmade ones to the people you usually do. Since I have gotten married I have a few new people to consider, but they seem to enjoy the store bought cards. Probably because my husband was never into sending cards at all..lol.

I would send the 20-30 people you usually send to the hand made cards. If you want to send the other people cards, buy them from the store. You can’t get them pretty cheap at some stores.

Send what fits your budget. My first Christmas post wedding I did send a card to every person we sent an invite to. Then I paid close attention to those we don’t talk to on a regular basis (or heck, an annual basis). If it was someone I hadn’t seen since I was a kid and they didn’t send a card in return…they didn’t get one the next year. Once we were married my list did grow to include "his people". Perhaps talk to your hubby and see what he thinks about sending a card to Great Aunt Edna that hasn’t talked to him since he was 3 and didn’t show up for the wedding.
