So my venue event coordinator calls my mom today to tell her that they are remodeling and they won't be done in time for the wedding. It went something along the lines of, "Oh by the way, we're remodeling. You knew that right?"
NO ONE has said ANYTHING about a remodel and we've been in constant contact with the venue since we booked!
The best part, they are remodeling our reception ballroom right this very moment. It was supposed to be done already but got delayed but they PROMISE it will be ready by this Saturday, and we are getting married NEXT Saturday. So if it's already delayed what is the guarantee that it won't be further delayed???
When I talked to the lady she assured me it would be done in time for the wedding, and the only thing that WOULDN'T be finished is the lobby and foyer area. So, even if the ballroom is done my guests will still be navigating through construction to get where they need to go.
My mom talked to her first and the lady made it sound like we might have to look at back-up options. The only backup option is a considerably smaller room that I hate. So needless to say I am freaking out a little bit.
But, the lady did sound AWFUL on the phone like she was having the worst day of her life. So that's a little bit of a consolation. She wants to know if there's anything she can do to set my mind at ease. I told her I'd think about it. My mom and I are going to check it out on Monday and see what the damage is/if the room is done. I might have to throw a hissy fit and demand a discount. We'll see...
