So I have run into a problem a few times but a particular bride just reminded me of it yesterday. Many guests, especially at a destination wedding, opt to write a check as a gift instead of bringing a more tangible gift. This is a great idea and always very appreciated!
Here is the tip part...... While so exciting to see in print for the first time, writing a check to the bride and using her new last name is rather troublesome.... The bride can't cash the check until she gets the marriage liscense back in the mail which depending on the county and how fast it was put in the mail can be quite a while. Checks written to the bride and groom, with the new last name can also not be cashed for the same reason!
So I offer this word of advice, write their new last names on the envelope but use the bride's maiden name on the check...
