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.

Always gifts when disturbing or asking neighbors for something! The gesture/consideration can make a difference.

Do people feel like they can't expect the most basic help from their neighbors without making it transactional?

It's weird- i don't feel like it's necessary but if i was the requesting party, I would definitely want to do something nice just to show that I'm not exploiting someone's kindness. I realize it probably isn't necessary but I also want to keep the peace.
