How to Throw a Party Without Inviting a Noise Complaint
Parties can be tricky to host for apartment dwellers. You want your guests to enjoy themselves, but you don’t want to annoy your neighbors or cause them to call in a noise complaint. Fortunately, you don’t have to choose between your social life and your community harmony. Throwing a successful party in an apartment without making any enemies along the way is easy with this advice.
Talk to Your Neighbors First
It’s gracious to give your neighbors a heads-up that you plan to have a party so that they are prepared for any unusual visitor traffic and noise that they may encounter. Make clear to your neighbors that you are serious about not interfering with their ability to enjoy their homes in peace, and welcome them to come to you if there are any issues during your event. An even better strategy is to invite your neighbors to the party—the disruption won’t bother them if they are involved, and you may even make some new friends!
Rethink the Loud Music
Playing loud music at a party is a surefire way to inconvenience your neighbors . Try out your playlist before the party at different levels, and go outside to see how audible it is. You can even ask your neighbors to weigh in on what they can hear. Keep your music at your pre-tested level during your party to prevent any issues. It’s also a good idea to ensure your doors and windows are closed during your party to minimize the impact of any noise on your neighbors.
Be Considerate with Your Timing
Try to plan your party for a weekend evening. Neighbors with kids will appreciate not having noise keep their little ones up on school nights. Generally, people expect and are tolerant to more noise on the weekends.
