One disgruntled local even hit back with his very own message, threatening to call the police at the wedding reception.

The opening note read: “Friday and Saturday June 18th and 19th we will be hosting our wedding ceremony and reception – please do not camp here!
“We have a whole guest list arriving for the weekend to party, so if you choose anyway, we’ll line up around you and do it anyway.
“Make sure you have a present and a barbecue dish. PS this is going to be loud music and a late weekend so when you are here expect that.
“We’ll be over 50. Thank you for your understanding.”

The second note pinned over it hit back, “Hey, congratulations on your upcoming wedding, but your plan to entertain a lot of people and play ‘loud music’ for two days is not going to work for the residents of this place Area.
“Besides, where do you want to park all these cars? And where are you going to go to the bathroom and clean up behind you?
“We all suggest that you go somewhere else as soon as possible where you won’t disturb our neighbors, and if not, don’t be surprised if the soldiers pay a visit because they’ll be called and cars will be towed at your expense.”
One Reddit user hit back, “Imagine if you had that claim.”
While another called the note “passive aggressive” and a third wrote, “It seems like a good time to hang out 50 of the loudest disgusting drunks you know this weekend too!”
A fourth added, “If it were around me (what could it be? I have no idea if it is) I would definitely take a walk there to see what all the fuss is about . ”
Since the backlash, the bride has reportedly posted a statement on Facebook to apologize.
According to 7 News, the woman said she was planning to go camping this weekend with her wedding party of 10 and the children of her guests.
“There was no way I wanted to offend the community,” she said, and continued, “My sign was in an effort to distract punk kids trying to party.
“I can assure the community that we will not be disturbing or leaving a mess. I never would have thought in a million years that the community would make a riot. “
The woman continued, “I invited 10 people who have multiple children, most of whom are toddlers and young children under the age of 15.
“My wedding is at 5am and this was a beautiful public space that we love … I’m so sorry for all the confusion, we just want to enjoy our peaceful ceremony with our family.”
