Getting married at Thatched Cottage?
Hi Ladies,
I got married at Thatched last month and had the TIME of my life! BUT.....![]()
I would like to share my experience so that none of you other early evening brides run into the same problem.
We were told the bridal party could arrive after 6:00pm for the 7:00 ceremony. As it turned out, we ran a little late taking pictures at Vanderbuilt and got there at about 6:20. We arrived JUST as the previous wedding was leaving!! Someone messed up big time there and they were NOT ready for my wedding! The girl who was there (not ToniAnn) who I had dealt with told me I had to wait OUTSIDE because the other bride had the suite until 6:30!! It was a total disaster both inside and out! Imagine our guests waiting along that road while the valets were busy getting the other people out??
OK so they did get it cleaned up and fast, but the damage was done, certainly in my parents eyes. (I wasn't happy either, but I was in that bridal 'daze' where nothing could bother me too much that day!)
My parents wrote a letter to them over two weeks ago and they never responded! That's another thing that doesn't make Mom or Dad happy!
Anyway, I agree with my parents that this should not happen and I wanted to give you all a heads up JUST in case you have a wedding before yours!
If that didn't happen, Thatched would have gotten a total A plus because everything else was wonderful!
