more fun from The Inn at Longshore

It simply never stops with this dump:

an email today from a future couple---

"...we had our meeting with Longshore last night and we inquired about the vendor meal. They told us the vendor meal consists of a hot protein and salad and that it was up to the chef. They would not commit to what a "hot protein" would be. Since you've dealt with the Inn in the past, I am not sure if you want to chance it and request the vendor meal. Let me know what you would like to do."

HOT PROTEIN??? Is the chef going to shoot his hot sperm load onto a dish for me? Thats very thoughtful and all, but this is what they tell couples? Unbelievable---

the Inn at Longshore sucks hot shit from my ass


...those fuckers at Inn At Longshore are at it again. Playing their 'only game in town card', now they are not just treating vendors like Nazi prisoners, NOW THEY ARE TAKING IT OUT ON COUPLES!!!!! Read on for a true story---

"Just wanted to touch base on a little change of plans... You were 100%
correct about the Inn at Longshore. We have run into a major
contractual issue with them, and are being forced to change our
reception venue. Given the shady way they have treated us,
we have little faith that our reception would come off without a hitch.
We're now moving to another hotel for our reception,
and are looking into church options down in the area as well to ease the
Friday night rush hour travel for our guests. I just wanted to let you
know right away to make sure that you're ok with driving to the new locale"



here's the shit those fucking pricks are pulling:

We had an initial meeting w/ this woman- - - - - - -, where we shared our estimated numbers, talked about options etc. We aren't having a huge wedding, it's only about 115 people, so we were specifically looking for a place without a "minimum." Since we booked a Friday night, she assured us that there weren't any minimums and waived some other nominal charges for cocktail setup etc. I sent in a form w/ a credit card deposit to hold the date in good faith. We received a letter of intent from them (to be signed) stating that there was a minimum (of a ridiculous amount), so we called multiple times to let them know that we couldn't sign it, that we needed it revised with the terms that we agreed to. Months went by. No agreement. I called again. Via email, I was assured that the terms discussed with her were in place, and that we would sit down to go through the contract soon. Then recently we finally went there, and again - this ridiculous minimum was on the form. We went back and forth, and found out that - - - -, the person we originally dealt with, has been fired and that they are not willing to honor her terms. That was the thing that initially made us think of running the other way… but it was this woman, Jamie who really sealed the deal. She was so rude and nasty… and inappropriate! Rudely interrupting us when we were discussing our options, talking about how she had to sell a certain dollar amount to support her kid because she doesn't get child support and that she had her Dad cosign for her car (she's in her 40's) etc. etc.


[REALLY? boo-hoo-hoo----are you fucking serious? Are you running a friggin' business or do you need tickets to "Maury"?]


How professional!!!.....


What a nightmare for the client!!!!! Hopefully that dusty, overrated shithole will eventually rot to the ground. The last time I was there their air conditioning was LITERALLY leaking out of one of the walls in the reception room. The poor puzzled staff was trying to remedy it but placing dinner napkins under the leak to absorb it. Its nothing but a a glorified VFV hall with a psudeo-view, which stinks like my saggy day-old underpanties at low tide.


I hope that this crap is biting then in the ass. You should not be treating clients this way in this economy---or EVER for that matter. When this crazy bitch is at the welfare office looking for foodstamps, maybe she'll change her tune and lighten the fuck up.

Let me add - that this is the SECOND situation I have encountered in the last month where someone has backed out of their contract with these bastards - even at the expense of losing up to $2,500, just to NOT deal with them. This shit should not fly, PERIOD.


This place SO PISSES ME OFF. If you have a wedding there or are thinking about it---beware!!! (and this is not even because they serve recycled, baked diarrhea to the vendors [see below for recipe] )
