Frustrated

Bear with me as I vent.

We have narrowed down the catering to two companies and I have had communication issues with both, already, not a great sign. Today put the icing on the cake however when company A still had not responded to our several e-mails. We needed an updated proposal and to schedule a tasting before we make our final decision. At the first and only meeting, company A did let me know she would be off on maternity leave this summer, therefore I was hoping to pick between the two before she left. Well no response, no response, weeks, months, no response so I decide to call. Oh she went on maternity leave about a week ago. Umm you couldn't have at least e-mailed me back before you would be gone for 2-3 months.

I just don't get this industry, my guess is that people are having 200-500 guest weddings and spending hundreds and thousands and my measly 70 person wedding means nothing. It is just a bummer. All weddings are not created equal apparently. Sigh.
