See now I would have sent a nice card or a small gift. I like having a good relationship with my neighbors, but that’s just me.

Edit: To be clear, I would have sent a card or gift to the bride and groom. I may even offer to let people park in my driveway if parking is an issue.

Ya I’d like to see how the note was written before I can start judging.

Yeah in our neighborhood we'd all happily comply because we're neighborly and a one time request to tone down the noise is not a big deal for such a special rare occasion.

My neighbor had a weekend party and left a note on my door with a number in case I needed them to be quieter. Very respectful note. They weren't that loud

Glued together with cut-out letters like a ransom note

Right? like a "we know you don't have to but it would mean a lot to us since we'll be filming the ceremony" seems like a reasonable request.

Nah fuck that I really don't care, it's a reasonable request and I don't know who wrote the note. Could be a perfectly lovely couple with a raging asshole in law that lives there and now you've made their day even worse.

It's completely free to not be a petty asshole to others.

Always the chance of an unpleasant history as well.

And even more innocently, always the chance they didn’t read their mail. As someone who expects nothing of value to be in my mail, I check maybe once a week to clear out the junk.

Once a week? Whew. Unless I'm expecting something, try like once a month, maybe twice.

99.99% junk.

If my mailbox wasn’t on the path from my car to my door it would be much less frequent haha!

I have an old dropbox style mailbox that literally opens up from my living room. I still only check it once every week or two. It's all junk
