I am not a Gina bride... but I wanted to just comment that I am addicted to this thread and it is like my soap opera! (anyone else?)
I am behind everyone who got screwed, and I prob would have had the limo take me to her house if she wasnt at my wedding.

I personally want to thank every non Gina bride for understanding what we are going through, it's like 5 of us and we would never wish this mess upon any of you.

Not a gina bride either but I do feel for all of you. I hope all of your situations get resolved to your favor...seems SO unfair!! As if a wedding isn't stressful enough!

I am glad that our misery provides some sort of entertainment

Not at all, I completely sympathize with you. I would be absolutely steaming mad and I am 100% behind all you guys. I want to see her take responsibility, and not by you guys chasing her down by going to her house, but by her contacting you appropriately, which would have been weeks ago.

I was a Gina Bride, and just to clarify one thing (even though I know it hurts her).

Gina LaPlaca is Gina LaPlaca-Hughes. I did a public records search, same address, same phone number.

Re: Flowers & Designs by Gina

I am not a Gina bride either and I have been staying out of this but i just want to say that I am so sorry to all of you that she was a no show for. I could not even imagine the pain and anger you must feel. Especially to those that she called and said she would be there despite everything huggy: I hope everything works out for all of you and you get all your money back. So sad that someone would do this to people.

I've been keeping up with this Gina drama for a while. I'm glad I saw it before I decided on a florist.

So this post has been quiet for a couple hours since TWOTY has come up.....As I was thinking that.....it came back up to the top!

I am not a Gina bride either... and like many others, I am addicted to this thread. I am glad it is up here, because while someone else might be willing to put their money in the hands of someone coming back from a seriously bad summer, I would not be able to. It doesn't matter what the reasoning is, it doesn't matter that she was in the hospital, what matters is that whatever she was going through, she is still going through. I do not wish her bad business, what I would love to see in fact, is for her to make amends with the brides that she missed, take a sabbatical from work and business, and then come back when she is 100% ready and sure she can do the job that is required. There are many well qualified people out there who due to whatever circumstances are required to take time away from their careers, jobs, school, business, whatever (even a few who had messed up in the past) and come back with full force. I truly hope she can do that. However, seeing the way that she is reacting and unfortunately lying and getting caught up in those lies, it does not appear that she is going down that path.

Good luck to all of you ladies who are owed money. Good luck to the ladies who are choosing to stick by her side and keep her as their vendor.

Now that I have officially spent an hour catching up on this thread, it is time for bed....

OH, and just because it is one of my biggest pet peeves: it's 'OF COURSE, not of coarse' COARSE is as in coarsely ground black pepper, or coarse hair - a texture....... sorry.
