Mysterious wedding invite

Post Body

So today in the mail I received a wedding invite, handwritten addressed to me (I have an unusual/ uncommon name). I recently-ish moved to this new address, about 6 months ago. I have no idea who either person is whose name is on the invite, neither have a last name it’s first name and two middle names and then first name middle name (could be a last name also). The return envelope has another single name on it that I don’t recognize, that is not the same as either name on the wedding invite. The address is a location that is somewhat local as is the wedding (an hour - hour .5 away from me). I have searched online for a wedding website and for all the names and haven’t been able to find any social media profiles. I’m so confused. Anyone have ideas about what this could be or how I ended up invited when I don’t know who any of these names are? There is also no information about like a registry or anything so I don’t think it is a scam to try to get gifts sent.

Update:

I haven’t heard back from the venue but I gave the full information to a few friends to have more pairs of eyes on it to see if I could be missing something and one of them figured it out.

The invite is from an old clinical supervisor of mine, so it is not a scam. This person goes by a nickname for the third first name that was on the invite, which is why i didn’t recognize the name. I know this is her second marriage so that may explain why there is no registry. I also know she dealt with some problems with an ex which is why she goes by her second (or third?) middle name and wiped her online presence. In hindsight she did text me several months back asking me for my address and I gave it to her, I assumed it was work related.

Regardless, I don’t know why she invited me. I thought our relationship was professional, we met via telehealth throughout the duration of our supervision (over the course of less than a year) and have only met in person once since we live an hour away from one another and work in different offices. I guess I have a different boundary than her and have decided I will return the RSVP with a not attending.

Thanks to everyone for your ideas and caring about this silly mystery!
