[QUOTE]Hi Margo, We are so sorry that you are displeased with the menu suggestions in your budget. We use the highest quality ingredients and feel confident that you will love the options! Besides the buffet selections, we have coursed menu options that start at $35 per person, and we offer our coursed menu buffet-style. Additionally, we have menus for a la carte items, hors d’oeuvres, and desserts, which can be added to coursed menus or buffets. We are passionate about weddings and work very closely with our brides-to-be to make their day as special as possible. Please reach out to me personally Monday through Friday from 9am to 5 pm at 214.515.5103, or via email at info@cityplaceevents.com . Also, it might be helpful to clear up any confusion. The events company who you were previously working with at The Tower at Cityplace is no longer operating here. Cityplace Events, the company I represent, is handling all events moving forward. We are so sorry for the inconvenience this causes, but we want to make the new relationship as easy as possible for you and look forward to resolving any concerns. Thank you for your feedback!

You can start by replying to the email I sent to Imelda last week and by promptly returning my families phone calls .

I have had the worst experience - seriously, a nightmare - with Cityplace.  Both me and my fiancee have lost sleep and have been worried sick about what just happened.  I have 30 days to plan a new wedding.

Yesterday I found out that CHG Cityplace aka Cityplace Events owned by Jerry Walker, with which I had my contract, is no longer doing receiptions and that I don't have a contract with anyone anywhere.  I had my suspicions for months now but didn't find out until yesterday and probably by accident.  Like everyone here, I kept getting the run around for months, no one would respond to me and things seemed pretty shady.  I think I was totally taken advantage of, led on, and lied to.  The "new" company, also coincidentally named Cityplace Events, owned by Rubicon Catering, Inc., which is owned by Joanne and Richard Ormsby, was allegedly in as of August 1st.  A lot of the current staff - Imelda, Allison, etc., - were there while all this was going on and no one told me anything until just now.  I think they were waiting until last minute to tell people so they could have a better chance of keeping contracts or getting people to re-sign under the "new" company name.  So unethical.  They now have higher prices for the rooms and less to offer in food.  Plus, how can anyone be sure that they won't screw you over again, but 5 days before the event?  "Ohhh...you needed tables?  That will be an extra $1K."

I don't know why my contract was cancelled all of a sudden but luckily I have a few attorneys in my family so I'll get help.  I also want to go to the news.  My real suspicion is that they just wanted to get out of contracts that weren't making enough money for them.  How did a totally "new" company get my financial information and money?  This looks like fraud and the new company - whoever they claim to be - was in on it or at least took the situation to their advantage.
