Re: Does it bother you when you hear bad things about your RH?
I had some a-hole e-mail me on 9-11 of all days the year before my wedding at my personal e-mail telling me not to get married at my place...saying a 'friend' got married there & it was horrible...well first of all how the hell did they get my e-mail? They claimed they found my wedding website thru a Google search...um...no cause i had it hidden w/ no keyowords....turned out they had stolen my STD magnet from there...after them & their party stole liquor from the bar & snuck people into rooms to try & avoid paying...real high class people.
This e-mail upset me so much...after talking to the owners & finding out they knew who it was i felt better...but i tried sending them an e-mail after my wedding telling them off & that i had a great freaking wedding, but it got returned undeliverable..i know how you feel.

Re: Does it bother you when you hear bad things about your RH?
I have to play both sides.. here and say I don't really see why you would be upset.
I mean if like with Kath they're seeming a little stalkerish, thats BAD. HOWEVER! Like with my RH..they WERE bad with the whole stolen necklace/missing police report/shadiness that went down.
So I DO tell people if they ask me (and its in my review) that the hall was BEAUTIFUL and affordable BUT they might want to keep their eyes and ears open for certain reasons. I don't flame the hall but I definetly give an honest opinion.
I personally liked hearing both sides about all the halls from brides who HAD actually had wedings there, because I felt helped me make a better decision on the place I chose to get marrried at.
i think as long as you give both sides to the argument, offense shouldnt be taken if someone had a bad experience at the same hall as you. You were fortunate enough to ahve a GREAT time it seems and thats awesome. Some people aren't so lucky.
BTW I have heard your hall is AMAZING!

No Peety I know what you are saying and if you have your own opinions on the hall thats totally fine. It bothers me when people say I heard its this and I heard its that. Just bothers me because I love it so much tere.. PS no idea what you are talking about with the Necklace, I guess I missed something. But do you know what Im saying? People say stff like I HEARD the food is Microwaved or all this bogus stuff. Just bothers me. People who have had no experience wioth it at all. Thats what makes me annoyed.

Re: Does it bother you when you hear bad things about your RH?
no one I have heard has said anything bad about my hall but i've heard things about vendors. Now I want to be clear, I don't like it when someone says well I heard they do this or they stink because.......
But I don't care if its someone posting their actualy experience.
I had a little trouble with that. I tried to tell everyone about a popular vendor and alot of girls tried to defend them, even girls who were using them in the future, and hadn't yet
So i can see how you feel with your hall, its so annoying!

OOOH ok. Yea that would annoy me. I mean if you say that, then explain you have never been there but that those ideas DO make you a little concerned. I read the thread where they were saying it was overrated and that I can understand being like WTH about. they should just have said 'its a little out of my budget and i have heard mixed reviws but it is pretty.'
The necklace thing was explained in my review I think. I got married in NJ and the hall :lost' my necklace by moving my things without my permission from the bridal suite because another bride arrived hours earlier than she was scheduled to, and demanded the room. I was told after the fact mid-reception and never went back to check till next day when we were unpacking our stuff.
I caleld and started getting the runa round from them; long story short ALOT of shadienes, including lying to my face about talking to my husband about some details (they DID NOT) and the police department where we filed the report and which uses the RH for all their functions, 'mysteriously' lost our original police report and we had to go file a new one which meant this thing tooK MONTHS to fx!
Even whent he insurance company got involved, the hall accused me of being a liar and saying it was 'Funny that i had pics of my necklace on when I came into the hall.' HELLO its a WEDDING! They took pictures of me from the moment I walked in till the moment I left> Fortunately he took good detail shots.
I understand some people may try to defraud them but I DID OT and if they claimed I was a liar and that my girls moved my stuff (they changed their story for the insuance company) WHY didnt they show them the video footage of them going into the room and coming out? they did have cameras all over...
WHY? BECAUSE it did NOT EXIST!
So anyway i got the money for the necklace but it left a bad taste in my mouth. the hall was gorgeous, the food was FABULOUS and I really liked the guy who hooked us up. but they are def a bit shady.

Re: Does it bother you when you hear bad things about your RH?
Yeah, it bothered me during the planning process. If someone had a bad experience, fine, it's their right to post. However, I've heard it slammed on the boards by people who weren't having their wedding there or might have never even gone to a wedding there. I've also had people make a 'face' or say something kinda negative to my face. This one person said 'oh, that's the place that has a million weddings at once, right?' And then proceeded to tell me why she loved her wedding, which was only one wedding at a time. Everyone's taste is different and everyone's budget is different, so I don't think anyone has the right to judge.

nope---doesn't really bother me. because i know that my RH did an amazing job for me and thats all i care about. everyone has their own standards and experiences and well---to be quite honest i know there are tons of ppl out there who are just NEVER SATISIFED no matter what and have to have something to complain about.

I agree. My five hours are over I had a great time and loved every second of it but if someone else has a problem with it good for them.

YUUUP!!!!!!
I got all mad about this recently. It was an 08 or 09 bride asking about Atlantica & some girl wrote back how awful it is there and how the drapes need to be replaced & how its overrated, overpriced, etc... It really bothered me for some reason.

Re: Does it bother you when you hear bad things about your RH?
Ok I think i have a better idea where people are coming from now that Caroline posted. It seems like people are insulting our RH choices and our entire weddings, when they criticize the decor, the food as low quality etc.
I can understand being P-Oed now! I mean our hall ahd genuine issues. but it was a gorgeous place and the food was fabulous. If someone who had never read my review about the shadiness and had never been there, said, 'I heard their food is so cheap-like they microwave it out back' I would be HEATED because that was the major selling point for us; best food in NJ. it was also gorgeous and if someone insulted our oroom with all the glass, yes I woulld be annoyed because we tried SO HARD to make a beautiful wedding and here peopl are calling us 'stupid' for paying that price in essence.
I hear you now Stace! Sorry it took a bit for my ears to unclog!

Re: Does it bother you when you hear bad things about your RH?
oh yea this definitely bothered me!! some people would either give me the 'I heard' comments, or what would annoy me is that people would tell me about it from 10 years ago.....the hall was completely renovated, under new mgmt., but yet I get to hear about their visit back in like '95 lol. luckily, I just brushed it off, and had an amazing experience there, which I reflected in my review. that's all you can do is tell people what a great experience YOU had and let them go there to decide for themselves.
