About Mrs. Caterpillar

You’re Fired

August 29th, 2006 @ 4:25 pm by Mrs. Caterpillar

So, I fired my hair and makeup vendor.

I tried to be flexible, I asked her to stay an extra hour — still 2 hours before the ceremony is set to begin — I asked if she could bring someone else along that might be able to stay later. Her answer? NO. As manager of the makeup department of Neiman Marcus, she MUST MUST MUST be a beauty event in Palo Alto, and cannot stay any longer than 12pm. As well, she can’t stay to do hair. And she tried to enlist another hairdresser, but they’re all booked.

Um . . . didn’t we settle this IN MARCH? Did you not have 6 months to figure this out? So, I’m done. And she’s done. I just fired her, and I feel really really good.

Way to go! Hopefully she’ll learn not to treat brides like this. And you’re doing it soon enough that you can hopefully find someone else who’s great–even better than the last one! :)

Where are you located? I can suggest a very good hair and makeup person I used for my own wedding … in the San Francisco area. If you are interested, feel free to email me and I can give you all the details.
