Hi girls! I had such a crazy day. I called my venue (Milleridge cottage .. or so I thought lol) and found out that they booked us for the WRONG room! I didn't even know there was another room!! :000 They had me down for the carriage house which apparently is a small room in the Milleridge Village. I was shocked and told her that I had never even seen this other room - just the Cottage!
She told me that my contract said Carriage House - another couple has what I thought was my wedding date in the Cottage (8/31/14, day before labor day). So 1) I was never booked at the cottage 2) I was in some room I had never even seen!! Crazy!! SO my NEW wedding date is June 29th, 2014 in the COTTAGE lo!! I am honestly much happier - 8/31 was too close to my birthday, sister/MOH birthday and my nieces bday. Also my niece/FG will be out of school for the summer (she lives in NC). Now I just have to hustleeee and thank god nothing major was booked! I was also getting frustrated because every vendor i contacted was already booked on the holiday weekend! (makeup, hair, photographers, etcetc) SO it worked out for the best!!! :)
I just have to re-order my save the dates, send back the old ones and call my dress place to make sure my dress/fittings will be fine!!!

Wow!! Thank goodness the mistake was realized now. I didn't even know they rented out rooms for weddings in the Village, I thought the Cottage was the only wedding place there. Glad it all worked out for you!

Everything happens for a reason. I'm glad you're happier with your new date!! Holiday weekends are tough - I'm sure it will be easier for you to find vendors now. Good luck!

if the contract said the other room, i'm not sure they are liable? this is why it's sooo important to read everything so closely!!
glad it all worked out :)
