re: dealing with abusive hotel staff

What an awful experience. It’s tricky one but I would have though a separate table would have been appropriate as the wedding cake is very much a feature of a wedding. I would have contacted the bride to let her know what has transpired and ask her if she was happy for the cake to go on desserts Table, or if she wants it on a separate one.
I’ve only had one minor altercation with rude venue receptionist, on day of assembly…. I dealt with it quietly and firmly and got what I wanted, as I knew what the bride wanted and my focus is on her, not the venue staff

Please let us know the result and if you got a separate table. Just because she’s co-owner, doesn’t give her the right to treat you so dismissively, you could be a potential client in the future.

You must never limit your challenges, instead you must challenge your limits
