Was a clusterfuck
The couple paid for an all inclusive bar package from 7pm til 11pm. I made the announcement at 7 that the free bar was open.........no bar staff.
they came to me to complain as I had made the announcement.
Also 4 chairs missing from the top table as I seated the guests, everyone had to shift up to make room while they set 4 more places. Elbows everywhere while 10 people tried to eat at a table for 6.
The previously mentioned wedding cake
10 minutes before the couple and guests arrived, Apey was hanging decorations while I was trying to sprinkle round pearls on wonky tables..........well you can imagine. By the time they arrived, there was not one pearl on any table. Remember we are the entertainment, not the fucking wedding coordinator, but she was so useless we had to help.
They made a cd themselves for us to play over dinner, the food took so long, the 75minute cd was finished before the starters came out so I had to improvise and stick with their theme of early 50s tunes.
I could go on but you're probably bored now.
Anyhoo, I had a great nite, dance floor full and got a tip.
