Your not gonna believe this bull (Long)

What bad business practices

I am so upset and I have been holding it inside since my ordeal started. I know we cannot name names on this site but if you do a search or fm me I will tell you who I am taking about that way you can avoid what I went through.

As most of you know I am planning this wedding from California. I flew home in the beginning of July with a fierce appt schedule to find a place for our reception and ceremony. All the places I made an appt with to visit told me that they catered to small weddings which is what I am having. I deliberately called each and everyplace to see if they would/could accommodate a party my size (60-75). I checked out more than a few places when I was home but I was waiting for my one appointment with this hall on Lake Ronkonkoma b/c I had really like the grounds and I had already spoken to them on the phone asking them that do they do small weddings of 60 people. So I met with the so called “manager” who says he’s been there for 35 years and we go over the details of the wedding. I reiterate to him how many people and that there might be more b/c I am not sure who will travel from CA to NY. He told me no problem “the minimum is 60 and if I had more than that they need a final head count 14 days before the wedding”.

I am so sorry this happened to you! How awful! Bad business, and it will come back to haunt them.

it feels so good to know that people have as strong of a reaction as I did/do. Ok maybe mine is stronger being that it happened to me. But its nice to hear what your thoughts are.
