Boo Boo Kitty 3 Posted March 11, 2007 They did a ton of stuff for us like upgraded our room, free money to spend for drinks, ect. We didn't want another cruise because then we would have paid to get down to Florida again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BJean 16 Posted March 11, 2007 Boo Boo Kitty: You win!!! We lived in Orlando when my daughter got married. We booked a fantastic ballroom downtown at Church Street Station for the reception. When I went to check on things (fortunately early in the game) they told me that they booked a different wedding party because we we having fewer guests. No, they did not apologize or comp us for anything. I was stunned, extremely disappointed and beside myself. They showed me another room that was available, but it was hidden under the big rooms, like an ugly step-sister's cubby hole or something. My daughter was completely unfazed. Couldn't have cared less. Thank goodness. I re-grouped and someone told me about a beautiful new golf course not too far from our house. It turned out to be very beautiful with an adequate outside breezeway looking out over the golf course, for the actual wedding and very pretty rooms for the reception. In the wedding video the sun is setting behind the chaplain who married them and my daughter's dress went from white to nearly all colors of the rainbow - incredibly beautiful. All the men (mostly from Maryland) were thrilled to have the chance to play 18 holes of golf and the best man's father hit a hole in one. (During the reception he kept thanking us for having this party to Celebrate his hole in one.) Our deejay was a nut and tons of fun and everyone relaxed and had a blast. Lots of people came up to me afterwards and told me it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. To cap the whole thing off, my new SIL's mother came to my house the next morning before heading back to Maryland and handed me a check for $2500 to help defray the cost of the reception (she had already paid for most of the flowers)!! What a woman! Everyone still talks about what a great party it was and what a beautiful wedding it was. I am still a little on cloud nine over it and they've been married 7 years. So this doesn't exactly fit the bill for the worst wedding, but I had to say that not all brides are bridezillas and not all weddings have to cost $100,000 to be fabulous.
