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

Time to crash bingo night.

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

I would assume it was based on who booked it first but I could be wrong. As at leat one other person said if they host that then you are probably better off finding a nicer place for a wedding.

The bingo night is probably a weekly or monthly thing

Then they should not have booked the OP's wedding for there, knowing about the regular bingo.

"Christ Greg, I know you're new but how could you forget about spaghetti bingo night?"

That sucks, but I'm pretty sure it was for the best. A wedding is a special occasion, if your venue canceled something so important for a night of bingo and spaghetti... Well lets just say I won't cast ALL the blame on the them.

Yeah. OP should have used her psychic abilities to foresee any dick move on the part of the venue when booking her wedding. Duh.

Needless to say my comment was cut short, but I was referring to the quality of the venue choice for a wedding than her "psychic abilities".

What if they couldn't or didn't want to spend a lot of money on venue? Or it could have been a really nice place. OR, like where I got married, there was literally ONE place that could hold 50 people or more.

You'd be very surprised what some imagination could do to a plain hall and equally surprised at the events churches can host.

Understandable. After all, if they cancelled then they would have to deal with vicious blood sucking elderly people.

I hope your wedding is not too close so that you can find another place. Definitely get your money back and tell everyone you know not to book there because they don't honor their bookings

Spaghetti-bingo night sound better then a wedding.I must attend this event.

Maybe they just picked whichever was booked first? It still sucks, but either way they're going to upset somebody, it's better if they follow reasonable logic and keep the event booked first. But it's horrible that they double booked. I hope you can find somewhere else for your wedding.

More important? lol your a customer, your reasons arent important, if they booked first, they get it

That's ridiculous! A wedding brings in more money then that crap! Their loss. Idiots.
Lily_Rain77 25
if it's just a venue then it depends on the amount of time you're using the space. a wedding might be there a few extra hours but bing is every week
olpally 33
I used to work at a similar venue. Bingo will always be there, weddings won't be. Take them while you can. Terrible idea.

Not if the bingo night is weekly or monthly event. The wedding will be a one time thing.
