When I bought my dress, I was thrilled to win a "free honeymoon" promotion that Formalities was…read moreoffering in-partnership with Marketing Concepts. After filling out the paperwork and sending a check deposit, as requested, I worked with a representative to book an all-inclusive trip to Puerto Vallarta for $2,435.84, which I paid in full. Three days before leaving for our honeymoon, I had a bad feeling about the whole thing. This led me to calling the resort to confirm our reservation -- which thank goodness I did -- because we discovered that the whole trip was a scam and the travel agent had stolen our money. The representative not only stated this was a case of fraud, but admitted it had been happening for months to other clients from the company. This left us without our dream honeymoon and out $1,500 in nonrefundable airfare, on top of the money paid for the trip. I notified Tracina Fisher, the owner of Formalities, in hopes of preventing this from happening to other brides. While she initially expressed sympathy and asked how she and Peter Hayes (the Marketing Concepts Representative) could help, their tone quickly changed. When I asked if their companies could help recoup the $1,500 we lost--considering this situation never would have occurred without their promotion--they became extremely rude and blamed me instead of taking accountability for putting their customer through this situation. It's devastating to lose our dream honeymoon to fraud and even worse to feel abandoned by the businesses we trusted. While we are dealing with this issue with both federal and state authorities, I strongly urge anyone considering this store or promotion to proceed with caution. This experience has caused immense financial and emotional distress, and I hope it prevents others from suffering the same.

After several precious minutes, they came back and said they had it in stock. I told them I could get there by 6:05pm and we really needed it. She said, so sorry we will be closed. So off to Wal Mart I went. Imagine the loyalty the employee could have created if she had told me they would wait?? So the next time, and going forward I will simply drive to Wal Mart for the same bad customer service, but at least they will be open. Small businesses complain about the locals not supporting them. This is why. A loyal customer turned away when we really needed the item. So Wal Mart it is. All the best to Weavers.
