Interracial/Minority Couples @ Atlantis Marine World

I would like to know if there are any interracial or minority couples that have had their wedding at Atlantis Marine World in Riverhead, NY.

I believe all my problems are stemming from the fact that we are an interracial couple. Is that possible in this day and age?

I can't give an answer but I can say we are an interracial couple and I've never had a problem. I'm white, he is hispanic. I've never felt like we were being discriminated against??

Did you have your wedding there? Who did you interact with? How long ago was it?

I dont' mean there directly - I just mean in general.

That is the only thing I can wrap my head around. When Bob met us (after the original sales mgr/maitre'd left), he gave us the cold shoulder, was abrupt and disinterested, even annoyed at times by the simplest questions. I got that feeling when we first met him, but pushed it aside and didn't want to even entertain the thought that it could be true.

I don't have any proof, but what is the difference between us and all the other couples at Atlantis Marine World who had/gave wonderful reviews and we are being treated like crap on the bottom of their shoe?
