Why Must I Eat All My Vendors?

Why Must I Eat All My Vendors?

An email from my makeup woman today:

HI Miss Caterpillar,
how are you? I just got back from San Pedro, Belize.
I erased your message with your phone number by accident so I have to email you.

I spoke to a couple of different hair people and they are booked.
It’s a really popular day.

So here is what I suggest…I would like to meet with you and your bridesmaid the night before to set and curl the hair. When I arrive in Corralitos, I will do makeup and finish with hair.

I have one more hair person I would like to contact but she may not want to travel.

It makes me a little nervous you are going last, but understand you have things to do. I need to start on you guys a little earlier bc they scheduled me to work that day and I need to leave Corralitos by 12:00 noon.

She wants me to travel 90 miles to San Francisco to get my hair done the night before the wedding? NOT BLOODY LIKELY! I told her she needs to figure out how to stay longer in Corralitos, or I’ll find a new hair person here. What’s wrong with these people?

That would worry me a bit. I wouldn’t like the fact that she is in a hurry to get somewhere else on YOUR wedding day.. when she is supposed to be making YOU beauitful.

Something about this doesn’t sit right w/ me. If I were you I’d raise a big stink (or just threaten to). You’re paying for this, she should be bending over backwards to accomodate YOU–not the other way around. Good luck!

i’m of the “cut and run” school of thought. if there are other hairdressers to be had, i’d start exploring that. but if she falls in line when you next speak to her, no need tobail, but good to know what (if any) options you have.
good luck, Miss Caterpillar! vendor drama is so uncalled for! don’t they know they’re supposed to make your life *less* stressful!?!?

I’d get another plan in place for the makeup - this does not sound good.

I’ve never heard of anyone asking you to go get your hair set the night before your wedding… THAT’S INSANE! Poor you!
