Hi Ladies - Sorry it's a bit long...
I don't know what to do? It has to do with my wedding invitations. I went through this stationer my friend recco'd to me. We went in Septmember to pick out these invites to get it out of the way. The stationer suggested I not wait too long to order them. So we tweaked and tweaked the invites until it was the way we wanted it.
So I get it together, sent her my excel guest list. Mind you there was a lot of back & forth in terms of tweaking the invites since October!!!
2 weeks ago I email her saying let's do this. I get an email back saying she is in a dispute with the company that was doing our invitations. She said she needs to look into other thermographers. I said ok.
Once again, I follow up w/ her yesterday to find out if she heard back from the 2 thermagraphers she was getting quotes from? I'm kind of tired of the constant follow up I need to do with her.
She's stuck in Florida because of the weather but tells me she will have an answer for me by the end of the week. Ok then ....She tells me I have enough time my questions is then why the F did you suggest I order my invites by end of year??? arrghhh
Anyway, I'm trying to be patient since my friend had recco'd her. Thus far anything my friend recco'd has been great. That said, at the end of her email she said to me....I'm afraid you're going to go into sticker shock from the possible price quotes because we're using 3 colors. Black, pink & white. Mind you there is nothing spectacular with these invites. It's just the coloring I wanted to get right.
So my head slowly began to blow off my shoulders. My FI said well she needs to fix this. SHE was the one who suggested we go through this other company....all of a sudden their not reliable and now I feel like all this time spent was pointless.
If you were me would you just go to another stationer and see what they can do?
My whole reason for doing this early was because I wanted to be ahead of the curve...be done with it and move onto other things. Plus, per her suggestion have this done by the end of the year. Well here we are at the end of the year and I've got nothng ordered and no clue how much this is going to cost us now?!
Do I look at this as a little bump in my wedding planning and see what she comes back with? Or look into someone else? I'm pissed because these really are basic invitations & the reason we chose these invites was beause the inside envelope was a cloth type envelope - it was cool and different. At this point we're not even getting that!!!!
If you were me what would you do?
As always thanks so much for your help.
