ok- so my wedding was perfect- except for one TERRIBLE issue with a certain vendor. I am not ready to write my review yet, but I want to write about that vendor RIGHT AWAY to warn everyone...but I don't know if there are any rules about writing something not-good about someone...Iol...i know this may be silly but can someone tell me if there are things I have to watch out for??
thanks!

Re: help me
I would say you are allowed to post a review, just don't be offensive and try to remove emotion from the facts of why you didn't have a good experience with them and you should be covered. If we are allowed to write reviews, we are certainly allowed to write negative ones if we didn't have a good experience! That's why we have these boards, right? Please share! haha

Re: help me
I would just plainly state the facts of what the vendor did or did not do and do NOT use words like 'stay away', 'Avoid' 'do not use' etc. Basically, you can't tell everyone not to give them business but I believe you can be fair about YOUR experience.
I think it's important that girls share their experiences, good and bad
Glad everything else went well

Re: help me
I've seen reviews where people and given a vendor an 'F' rating... I think they were straightforward without being offensive. It's only fair to rate vendors whether they were good or not. JMO
