1 /5 Douglas Rutherford: Book elsewhere! My wife and daughters had a horrific experience. My daughter was getting married the day of the fiasco, July 7, 2017. Before, they had reserved a half-day spa, hair and make-up sessions for three people– from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM. It was promised to be a wonderful wedding day, a mother-bride-sister day... spending time together, relaxing and drinking mimosa. Not to be!
Because of some plan changes, the rehearsal was move to early the morning of the wedding. We were all done at 11:15 AM and my wife called the owner to let them know they were all on their way.
Nobody thought there could possibly be an issue since they reserved such a large block of time... and what wedding goes as planned anyway? To our bewilderment, the owner told my wife over the phone that because they were 15 minutes late, she canceled the entire appointment.
What? Who does that to a wedding party?
We were obviously shocked and in disbelief as the wedding was taking place later than day. After much pleading and crying, the owner agreed to see the bride and my other daughter, but she specifically told my wife that she could not be seen. What?
According to my daughters, there was nobody else in the salon… no one but the idle employees!
Fortunately, after much scrambling, we found a more professional salon for my wife… but my wife was definitely robbed of her much-anticipated wedding-day experience with her daughters. At the end of the day, the owner does not belong in the service business.
