Matt and I have had a few interesting encounters since we started looking for a venue, and i thought it would be fun to post some of the more outrageous things that salespeople have said to us.
Please post yours too!
Gems from sales/coordinators:
So you’re getting married, eh? Tired of being happy? (said to the groom-to-be)

Every Sunday I think, I’m gonna quit this job, but then every Tuesday here I still am.

Let’s be honest—I don’t give a damn about the people coming to your wedding. I only can that you guys have a good time.

[points to a photograph] “Here you can see what it looks like when we set up this thing in the chapel…of course we don’t have this thing anymore so you can’t use it. But that's what it would be like if you could.”
*
This is your first wedding, so you’ll want it to be special. You know—you get married a second time in the future, and you want it to be like the first. But it never will be. So you’ve got to do this wedding right because you only have one first marraige.

Salesperson: There's vegatarians in your party? Who?
Me: I am.
Salesperson: Then you can go out in the yard and eat grass.
Hope this was good for a laugh! We certainly thought so!
Cheers,
