Yes, any newly married couple receiving any sort of shower or wedding gift should sent a thank-you note to the giver. It doesn't matter if the gift was cash, a gift card, or a material item.
The thank-you card should be sent as soon as possible, and proper etiquette states that one year after the wedding is the latest the card may be sent/

I would say yes. That would be the nice thing to do- some ppl would rather give money than a gift you wouldn't want. I attended 3 weddings this year and haven't gotten a single thank-you yet for the gifts I bought- one I gave money, one a gift card, and another an actual gift. Each couple were different. But yea, I'd like to see a thank-you from them.

Yes. I myself am half of a very newly-married couple, and we're right in the middle of writing out thank you notes to everyone that gifted! Most of our gifts were money as well.
If the people that gave gifts also attended the wedding ceremony, it's a great chance to combine a gift Thank You with a Thank You for coming to the ceremony ("and it was so great to see you again!") in the same note.

YES YES YES! You should ALWAYS send thank you notes, no matter what type of gift it is. It doesn't cost much to do this, just write hand-written notes on decent paper and it's easy. It means a lot to most people to receive a thank you note in the mail. It shows you appreciated their thoughtfulness and that they were generous enough to get you a gift - they may have been on a tight budget so getting you something may have been a strain so a thank you is worth the money they spent. It leaves a good impression, shows you have good manners and they think more of you for it so make sure to send your thank yous. You should always show appreciation when someone has been good to you.

You should always send a Thank you note, I even sent one to those that came to my wedding, but didn't give anything.
If the gift is money, the proper thing to say in the note is "Thank you for the monetary gift. " Don't forget to also say thank you to them for joining you on your special day!
Have a good day!

Thank you notes should be sent for all gifts. Money gifts at a wedding are no exception.

Usually it's a good idea because it shows people that you appreciate their efforts in getting you and your spouse a gift and you are also thanking them for coming to the wedding and being a part of their special day. But some couples choose not to and that's their choice.

Yes, absolutely! Anytime you receive a gift from anyone for a wedding or otherwise you should send a thank you note to express your appreciation.

Of course! The couple should send prompt, handwritten TY notes to express appreciation for any and all gifts, cash or otherwise.
It's sad that etiquette has gone so far downhill that someone would even ask this question.

Yes. One should always send a thank you card for any gift received. It doesn't matter whether the gift is money, a gift card, or something else.
