UGH!!!!! My event coordinator has been laid off!

I called to ask her a question today and some other dude answers and tells me she's been laid off, "but don't worry I was just looking at your file and was about to call you because your wedding is just five weeks away and you are my most important bride." he tells me. 

So I say, "Okay, well...let's confirm a few details..."

And he says, "Okay, let me open your file..." and that takes him like two minutes.  I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST ABOUT TO CALL ME!??? 

Oh yeah, and he doesn't know what food we picked so we have to go do the tasting again because it's been three months since we chose the apps and the side dishes, and he knows nothing about the venue waiving the cork fee and he knows nothing about NOTHING!!!!!!

    Oh no I am so sorry that happened to you.  They should have informed you of this instead of when you called them to talk to her.   That totally sucks about your menu choices too I wonder why they weren't written down in your file.  Maybe the bright side to that is you get to have delicious food again.

    I said event coordinator but i meant my venue coordinator.  My DOC has offered to go to the new tasting we have scheduled next week to play the heavy and make sure they give me everything my previous contact had promised.  She rocks.  I'm really nervous about this.  Thanks for the vibes!

    I am so sorry. That sucks. Also, I am really sad. You are talking about Kim, right? I love her. She was so nice.

    I am sure everything will be okay. I think it is a great venue and it will all work out.

    Yeah, Kim.  She and I clicked so well.  I really love her and would have had her as a guest at my wedding if I could.

    I just found out they laid her off last Friday.  They've had almost a full week to notify me and I had to find out when I called asking for her.  That doesn't really bode well from my point of view :(

    I agree. They should have contacted you sooner, especially considering how close your wedding is.

    Be strong and make sure they honor everything that Kim had set up for you. I would think she would have kept good notes.
