Such a wedding snob...

Original post by HesLIgirl

Is anyone else turning into a giant wedding snob? My FH and I have a bajillion friends and probably have been to at least 60 weddings since college. I have always seen things I've liked and didn't like, but now I'm ridiculous. We went to a wedding this weekend and while we had fun, I couldn't help seeing all the problems in service at the venue. I made so many notes to tell my venue what not to do! For example, this place took orders but didn't bring out full trays of food-- they just brought out a plate or two at a time and then had to call out 'who got the chicken?' 'who got a filet medium rare?'. It was so awkward waiting for our whole table to be served. My friend went to the bathroom when her table was served and they just didn't give her any food!

Anyone else annoyed at herself for picking things apart?

I've been to tons of weddings (I come from a big Italian family) and before I got engaged I never critiqued or really noticed much at other peoples weddings. I have two weddings this month, one is at sand castle and the other is at venitian yacht club and I have one in October at westbury manor. I'm soooo anxious to see what other people are doing now that I am planning my own.

I used to critique other weddings and then I had my first wedding and EVERYTHING went wrong, even though we gave them a list of things that we wanted to have done! People didn't tell me how bad it was until after the wedding and I was glad they did. The service and Maitre'D were horrible. We did so much complaining to the venue after that we had a comp'd dinner for 10 people at their restaurant a few weeks after the wedding. I still wouldn't recommend the venue although I'm pretty sure they changed management since then.

I wonder if the bride and groom knew how bad it was!

lol toooootally. I've even turned the FH into one too. It's amazing how you begin to see things as 'must haves' and 'absolutely nots' when a year ago you didn't even know such things exist.
