NEED RH HELP

I have mixed feelings about saying he's a marine. One one hand if you do mention it to the guy w/o your FH i'm sure the BM will slip at one point and your FH will be highly pissed i'm sure.

On the other hand.. you can get stuff out of it maybe
On the other hand... if u tell the BM and he doesn't give u anything or acts like he doesn't care about him being a marine that just makes him a a$$ and u will hate working with him.

Just ask, 'is there anything else that you can do for us.' If he says no... Lie!
say that another hall is offering you a and b and see if he can match it.

First off what your FH did for us and our Country is amazing and I think he deserves the world. I hope he is doing better and wish you both nothing but health and happiness.

I would say there is no harm in trying, but honestly if it isn't in your contract I would be surprised if they do it now. Sorry to be a downer.... Also remember if you do get the VH our out of them that is also an extra hour you have to pay the dj/band, photog, or anyother vendor for.

Definitely negotiate, in this economy everything is negotiable. I don't know if you can get a full viennese hour thrown in but at the very least maybe an upgrade on the dessert or chocolate fountain.
