How would you close...
a letter to someone, like your boyfriend's parents, who you've only met once but spent the entire weekend with?
Cordially? Fondly? Regards? These all sound weird to me but I guess that's just because I never use them. What about "Take care,"?

How about "All the best,"
If not, "Take care" is another good way to close it.

Probably "take care", but sincerely would work too..it just might seem a bit formal.

Sincerely is a good catch-all.
The body of the letter matters more than the closing.

DearKellyB369,
I think the best way to end the letter would be the way I do it.
Best Wishes,
KillarneyRose
 Hope this helps!

I think it would depend on what you're writing the letter about. Is it a thank you? A hello note?

It was a thank you note. I decided to go with "Take care."
Thanks for your help! I'll remember all of these suggestions in the future.

how about "thank you", i mean if you had a really good time and they did some stuff for you ????? i like to close letters with thank you, because it kind of makes them seem formal, yet informal, i dont know  good luck!!
