Today, my wedding venue called and canceled our reservation because we were double booked with a spaghetti bingo night, which they felt was more important. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to cancel my wedding. On top of being upset about the break up, I was informed I owed a $900 cancellation fee for not using the venue. Single and broke. FML
Today, our wedding venue canceled on us, leaving us 8 months to find another in peak foliage season. My parents contacted the local news over the ordeal, but they're using my name and picture to make me look like a whiny brat who didn’t get her way. FML
Today, I had to cancel my wedding because my fiancé is so hungover from his bachelor party, he's throwing up all over the place, can't stand up straight and is calling me by the stripper's name he met yesterday night. FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. Unfortunately, it was cancelled because of the coronavirus. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. Everything went great, except that no one showed up. Apparently, the address of the invitation was typed wrong. FML
Today, I'd booked a table at a restaurant for my parents’ anniversary but when we arrived, the staff couldn’t find the reservation. I checked my confirmation email and realized I’d booked it for the following evening. We did find a less classy restaurant nearby, but can't get my deposit back from the other place. FML
Today, I found out that I have to reschedule my upcoming honeymoon because my office will be understaffed that week, due to the boss going on vacation right after my wedding. Oh, yeah, and he's in my bridal party. FML
Today, I had to cancel my $15,000 wedding and send a mass e-mail to 90 guests that there won’t be a wedding. My now-ex fiance got fired from his job. Normally this wouldn’t be an issue, if it wasn’t for the fact he got his colleague pregnant. FML
Today, my date ditched me and showed up with another guy at the same restaurant. She even tried to take the reservation. FML
Today, I had to cancel a plane ticket to a friend's wedding, because first he gave me the wrong date, after which his fiancée cut me from the guests because of Covid safety. Instead of paying $600 to be in the ceremony, I'm paying $400 to not go anywhere because the ticket could only be partially refunded. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm curious about this venue. Is it really a good place for a wedding if they have things like spaghetti bingo night?

I didn't even know spaghetti bingo nights existed!?

Yep it's an event where you eat spaghetti and then play bingo. I walked in one session at the senior center mistaking it for my new dance class studio this summer. Stayed for about 20 minutes. Needless to say I was very confused.

Wow ok I never even knew that was a thing. Why spaghetti though? Is this an American thing?

Because it's cheap, and you can feed 8 people for less than $2.

Uhm... Who prioritizes bingo over a wedding? It's not like they didn't have advanced notice that you booked the venue, they should have made accommodations for the blue hairs.

I would talk to the Venue if the wedding is soon. If they wedding is a long time away try to find a different Venue.

Marriages end in divorce. Bingo and spaghetti are forever.

Why not just combine the two events?

That could be pretty weird. "I now pronounce you-" "Bingo!"

If you picked a venue that also hosts bingo, you probably need to rethink your whole life.

Just because it hosts a bunch night doesn't necessarily mean it isn't a nice venue. Maybe some bingo club wanted a really classy joint for spaghetti night. What are they gonna do? Not take someone's money because it isn't a good enough event? And in any case, not everyone can afford, or needs, big expensive venue. My wedding venue only cost me and my finance $600, and I'm thrilled because I'm going to get the garden venue of my dreams and I have more money left over for other things.

Maybe OP doesn't have money to blow and the parents aren't going to pay for it like some do. Big, flashy, over the top weddings can start off a couple in debt, which isn't exactly the best start for a marriage. I wouldn't want an expensive affair for mine because I would rather put the money towards a home and paying off student loans.

It's all about the spaghetti! Oh and bingo too.
