For thinking that you shouldn't impose your celebrations on the entire street?

I didn't say that but great job at jumping to assumptions 😉

Nicely said, OP.
Wishing you all the best.
Sorry, I'm late to the thread so can't contribute anything but to give you a round of applause for your final post.

Well done!

Agree with this, my husband is Indian so been to quite a few weddings and whilst the whole event takes up to a week the main "partying" with music etc does not last a week, 2 of the days at most.
Half of it is daytime rituals that are pretty quiet and mundane tbh

Seven nights is excessive by anybody's yardstick.

Contact Environmental health at the local council. If it goes on late at night, you can also report to police

So sorry I accidentally touched "unreasonable" instead of reasonable! I think those people are being very inconsiderate! Of course police won't be of help. Perhaps several neighbour's calling the endless wedding!

Tryinghardtobefair: "I'm from a minority culture as well and it gets a bit weird when people jump straight to the irrelevant positive comments as soon as they see me (whilst getting my culture wrong half the time)."

I totally get that and it is very annoying.

I'm glad everything seems OK. Thanks for the update.

The fact they’ve warned you in advance and asked you to let them know if it’s loud suggests they are nice people.

No it doesn't. It suggests they are complete chancers who think their "advance warning" gets them off the hook for their appalling, selfish behaviour. If you'd read the OP's posts you'd see they are not nice.

I believe if you’re having a party of that level of duration and noise it should be at a venue built and equipped for it, ie a countryside hotel / town hotel that would have soundproofing on event rooms. To consider a home in a domestic area to me feels selfish and inconsiderate.

OP, what is the point of complaining on here or ringing the council without so much as asking them to turn the music down. The fact they’ve warned you in advance and asked you to let them know if it’s loud suggests they are nice people. Just send them a message.

Don’t be so bloody racist. People of other cultures are still allowed to celebrate things in the UK FFS.

Perhaps but not in my experience

I’m astounded there are people who can read about a family with a disabled parent and child who can’t cope with lack of sleep, who are being kept awake by inconsiderate neighbours who should have hired a venue for their wedding, and think that the family should just crack on while the neighbours take the piss. Unbelievable.

How are the noise levels this evening op?

I think you are wrong then because it can an d does work in close neighbourhoods.

The kind of person who blares music at 1am in a residential area on a week night isn't a reasonable one. Whether they send out a mealy mouthed note or not. No-one with an ounce of consideration does it in the first place.

If it was a one night thing I would grit my teeth and get on with it, but potentially for a week? Nah.

But your comment was irrelevant, regardless of Asian weddings being more “depth” to them than just partying, that isn’t what this thread is about…it IS however about the partying side of it and the loud music and racket they’re making so the person who said about it BU of them to be partying for a week is correct!! Loud music and noise IS A PARTY, whether it be a wedding, birthday, anniversary or whatever it’s still people partying!!

I think you are wrong. It doesn’t work in close together neighbourhoods.

Elderly people don't usually mind and are often invited. I know that from experience.

Gosh, what an aggressive response.
OP won't know how the wedding hosts are likely to respond unless she tries phoning the number which was given to all the neighbours in case of problems. Maybe they will turn the music down in the evening, which is all that OP wants - she's not demanding total silence all day. Maybe they won't turn it down, or not much, but there's no harm asking and it is certainly more likely to have an effect than calling the police pretending not to know what is going on. There's no crime to report and nothing suspicious to describe except for a social event which is noisy but peaceful. Perhaps the police, if they did turn up, asking them to be quieter, would have more effect than a neighbour asking, but it's still better to ask first.

Whatever you want to think so that you believe you are right. Best wishes.

The people being selfish are the people who think it's fine to inflict week long noisy wedding celebrations until late in the evening on all their neighbours.

That behaviour has nothing to do with "live and let live". This is "I'll do what I want and anyone who is affected can just fuck off, because what I want is more important than anything else"

This behaviour of the opposite of "live and let live" as it's interfering with the neigbour's lives.

If you think that behaviour is acceptable
you are as selfish as they are.

Again because my view is different from yours it is ridiculous. Not at all doesn't make you right and me wrong. But perhaps it makes you appear selfish?? A bit more live and let live in today's world would go a long way. Best wishes.

You have posted ridiculous comments. No one should be expected to have to "live and let live" with neigbours creating this level of selfish, antisocial behaviour, nuisance and disturbance just because they want to.
