To get neighbours a wedding gift

Our neighbours are wonderful. They're very kind and helpful, not to mention generous! We let them know we were having a small get together for my partners 30th a few months ago, and that there could be some noise, and they could join us if they wanted. They chose not to join, but sent a gift. It was so kind and thoughtful!

We haven't known them very long, but they mentioned in passing that they're getting married in a few weeks. Would it be weird to get them a wedding gift? We were going to drop it in the night before their wedding so that they don't feel like they need to offer us an invite.

Our neighbours dropped a card and a bottle over when we got married. I didn't think they were angling for an invite....I think they were just being very kind. It was really appreciated that they acknowledged our day.

I think a card a bottle would be appreciated. Drop it over after the wedding though (they probably wouldn’t open a wedding card before the wedding anyway).

i think thats a lovely thing to do.

Card and bottle of bubbly would be lovely.

Do it after the wedding.

A gift sounds lovely and it doesn’t just have to be a bottle!

Our neighbours on both sides gave us a card and a bottle which was lovely! I think it's a kind thing to do and doesn't show you're angling for an invite at all :)
