Our First Wedding Mishap

It had to happen. Right? Of course it did. The infamous transportation issues that most wedding parties have happened to us just about two weeks before our big day. Why? Becuase they are evil, that's why.

Our vendor, Country Club Limosine, had the perfect party bus. 41 passengers, perimeter seating, a bathroom! What more could you ask for. When we booked in April, they said they were renovating the bus and it would be ready in June. So we signed the contract.

Mistake.

After a follow-up call in June, we find out that the bus is not finished and may not be finished in time for our wedding. Come on people! How long can it realistically take to put in an engine!? So we had them switch us to their only other 41 passenger bus. Mind you, this was in JUNE!

Yesterday, Matt got the call. 18 days before our wedding, they told us that they double booked us by mistake and that the other couple signed the contract first. Excuse me?! And yes, I had my first real bride meltdown at my desk, at work, in front of people. It was not a good day.

So, Matt and I got busy finding a solution. Luckily, his friend and softball teammate owns STL Road Pony. For all of you who live in St. Louis, you may have seen this fancy bus driving around the city. It's bright blue, has red leather perimeter seating, a bar, a dance floor, and that's right, to top it all off - stripper poles. Check it out!

I'm not upset anymore because this is a whole lot cheaper and I'm sure it will be a lot more fun! So, the point of this ranting post? Don't use Country Club Limosine. They. are. no. good.

On to a brighter subject, the wedding is 17 days away. Things are going smoothly, numbers are in and we are actually under (which is fab!), I have my hair trial tonight and I just can't WAIT for this day to be here.

If I have time, next blog post is Lynn's wedding!
