Commack Wedding Center! I cant believe....

How nasty and inconsiderate they are. I went to purchase my invitations there Despite all your warnings, girls. They had great service at the sell but that soon ended!
I was just getting a few last minute invites put together and realized that I was 25 outer envelopes short. When i called they immediately started with 'our policy....counting b4 u leave...blah blah blah!' I understand all that but i really only needed 10 or so more, no help, they got the manager Bob on the phone. Bob was so stubborn and rude he flat out said that he would not send me any envelopes and cut me off every attempt i made to defend my plight! I became so frustrated after 10 minutes of just trying to get some darn envelopes that I said ' Wow you seem to be living up to your rep' He then said 'SO WHY DID YOU BOTHER COMING HERE IF WE HAD SUCH A BAD REP? YOU SHOULD HAVE NEVER COME HERE...BUH BYE!' When i asked him is last name or position he said none of your buisness. You dont need it!! I tried 1 more x to respond, and try for some envelopes but he again repeated Buh- Bye with a snide attitude and hung up on me!! b I HATE CWC!!!!!!

Oh yea i spent over $800 on these invites!!

Re: Commack Wedding Center! I cant believe....

I swear I would call them tomorrow and tell the that you are blowing them up on this board and that you are going to make it your personal missions to tell as many BHB's as you know to not got there! Their behavior, especially the guy who refused to give you his name, are disgusting!

Re: Commack Wedding Center! I cant believe....

I feel your pain... I have my fingers crossed, I ordered my gown through them and have had a good experience so far. But I refuse to deal with Bob, he is the owner and has spoken to me obnoxiously in the past. At the first bridal show I went to I asked him if any of his photography packages were negatives only with out the albums... because my mother is a wedding photographer in florida and I can use her labs for my photos and albums with out paying the overhead. HE LAUGHED AT ME! Told me 'Good luck finding someone to do that! Especially on the Saturday of Labor Day Weekend!'
After that I said figured I would never set foot in his shop... but I ended up speaking with one of the girls that worked there at a later show and she was so nice that went and spoke only with her!

Then, yesterday I posted about how I got a quote for my bridesmaid dresses from Netbride.com. Netbride will sell my girls the dresses for $137... the wedding center wants $175. So I called to let them know hoping that they would match it... well they tell me that they don't compete with internet prices... WELL YES YOU DO BECAUSE I AM GOING TO BUY FROM THEM!!!

Now I just hope my dress comes in ok!

Re: Commack Wedding Center! I cant believe....

It amazes me how they take your money with a smile and the minute you turn your back they treat you like a sucker! If only they knew just how many women go by these recommendations and warnings. Can you order your envelopes from the company direct and put a complaint in with them too?
Sorry you had to put up with such nasty people.

Re: Commack Wedding Center! I cant believe....

What color are they? Maybe someone has left overs that will match, I just checked I have 11 left overs but they are inners (creme lining) I will be more than happy to send them to you if they might help?

Re: Commack Wedding Center! I cant believe....

Oh yeah! They are well aware of their reputation on here. I called them about 2 months ago to ask if they had a particular BM dress in stock after one person gave a rave review of them. The man gave me this HUGE sales pitch about how they are a full service place and I could even rent his granddaughter for a flowergirl (yeah right). So I tell him that he had a good standing with a forum I belong to (little did I know) and then he starts going on about how he is shocked and usually he hears about how many people write negatives about them! I was shocked he was saying this to me!
