Thank you for the tip….. But maybe i would tell her in first place what you did, but if she insists with the actitude maybe i tell her to go and get a husband or thats why you are alone !!! Hahahahah ……. Sorry for my honesty

I tell my clients that my sets are close and any comments are to be made after I finished and not during the set up. After 8 years in the business, I realised that the disparaging comments are usually from ppl that are just unhappy, so I either shut them up with extreme kindness and eagerness (if they’re just clueless but thks that they’re helping the bride) or a hard stare (if they’re mean), because for the later, no amount of niceties will stop them from making unwarranted comments behind your back.

Thanks so much for sharing your humaness to be angry as well. I’ve heard you speak and realize that you tell it as it is, and as it should be.

Great read! I didn’t know you could be such a tough guy Preston! lol. Turn the other cheek. I agree. You can also say to miss hoity-toity “Oh-I got SOO much work to do. It was nice meeting you!” (with extremely large..mm..sarcastic smile). That would really burn her toosh!

Oh do I relate!
Had a very sweet couple who rdered a wedding cake in their college colors of Burgundy and gold, what arrived looked like a circus tent with topsy turvey crooked layers ( not the whimsical kind) The Grooms mom was freaked out as they had not ordered a topper or flowers for it, and this disaster needed something quick. So as we are exiting the room after a long set up, we were asked to save the day, so a Camo job of floral finery was done at the last moment, reaction, One guest says, with a snotty attitude, Can I Help you? I said No we are done, and she says well it took you long enough, I would NEVER use your services! I just smiled and thought I wouldnt EVER have a date open for you or your event, LOL This gal didnt know that we just whipped up a Lrge amount of design in a few minutes to save the day and allow the couple to NOT have funky photos for the next 50 years! There always has to be an event in our lives that is a No good dead goes unpunished moment. LOL

Very interesting article. It’s sad that it does happen this way. I typically try not to sweat the small stuff and focus on the big picture. My client. Gosh how rude! But smile and walk away. “Serenity now!”

i have! this one woman, o god bless her. she made me cry! it took the bride’s mother to shout down the woman, and walked her out of the venue. she made such a fuss about every thing being wrong. i later foundout that she was the bride’s mother’s cousin, that she was really peeved that that her sister didnt hire her catering company, to plan, design and manage the wedding.
