They gave away my wedding date! ( Rant)

[Thomasjsgirl]

Wow, that's horrible! Good for you for keeping all of your confirmations. THis was obviously their fault and they need to make it right!

No response as of yet, not that I really expected one so soon.

 

After discussing things with my FI I've kinda resolved myself to changing the wedding date. If it comes right down to it I don't care about the date itself at all, it's more the fact that they made a commitment and I have acted based on that commitment and for them to go back on it bothers me more than anything else.

 

We will figure something out with respect to the invitations but the situation still sucks.

 

Don't get me wrong I'm not going to back down on my stance with the hotel, someone screwed up. Not going to assign personal blame to anyone, however this is all very not cool and I will not be fobbed off with a 'a mistake was made and we're changing your date now' e-mail because that simply isn't good enough.

 

I've e-mailed them copies of the contract and confirmation I recieved. Not much else I can do till they get back to me I guess.

 

Thanks so much for all the support it's meant alot and I do appreciate it.

Oh my I"m so sorry your going through this. Maybe you could ask for a different time on the 19th if they already booked your date and time. GOODNESS It's all very frustrating. If everyone booked their tickets, I hope they are still there on the 20th if that is your day. If not... that is when I would have trouble. If everyone is still there, I wouldn't worry about reprinting the invites. Only because it's vacation... everyone is free to do whatever... whenever : ) Stay positive! Maybe ask for some money off of your wedding plan. Just a thought!

Everytime I read this thread it just makes me so mad. Our date was picked for a very specific reason (it was my late grandfather's birthday, and he and I were very close) and if something like this happened to me I would be in tears. Changing the date is just not an option for us. It would literally mean changing resorts for us. And for them to just send an email and be so casual about it just infuriates me. I'm really happy for you that it doesn't sound like you were super attached to your date, but how would the resort know that or not? For all they know that could have been your anniversary or something ya know? Even if you do agree to change your date, I really hope they do something to compensate you....severly discounted wedding package, a couple nights of your reservations credited back...something.....you definitely deserve it.

This is exactly what I was going to say. Don't let them off with making such a huge mistake like this!! Hope everything works out!!

I can't believe it!!! I can't understand how that's possible for them to get away with that. It makes me extremely nervous..

Sorry...

[hockeymom97]

I was just checking in to see if you had heard back from the resort yet?
