My husband and I fell in love with Foxfire, everything about it seemed perfect. When it came to the planning, I felt like a broken record- there wasn't clear communication & in the end I felt like the team ' who was there to take care of me' made me feel uncomfortable, unwanted and like I didn't belong on my wedding day.
There were also some big mistakes(& we missed our rehearsal dinner, which was on us) , but raw chicken, telling us more people showed when they didn't (there were empty tables) and I had a metal shower curtain fall on my head & no one came to check on me, being ignored(which is beyond rude), cleaning breakfast & not bringing anything to the bridal suite( when that was requested), not following threw with tasks for the alter/ ceremony/ decor, cleaning up my favors before my guests left, cleaning my decor before my wedding was over, forcing us to be out earlier even though that was not in our contract- because they told others to come visit the property, & not serving a Nordic Breakfast- when again this was a contractual obligation on the day we left & there were 2 pieces of bacon and some fruit out for me to eat. While all of this happened the real kicker was when the GM called me abusive to his staff, while we went to calmly settle the tab. I asked his manager, who was next to him, if I once was abusive & he looked at he shook his head & quietly said no. One of The biggest things was they were supposed to be a row of chairs open in the front of our ceremony for a bridal party to sit down, no one stayed in the front so people sat in those seats, my bridal party couldn't sit down and I don't have any pictures where my husband and I are just being married. Which is something I really wanted.
I left my wedding crying and with such a sour taste. I tried to make all this right for months and it was a one way street. Foxfire threw a beautiful wedding, but it wasn't what I wanted or paid for- & mind you it wasn't inexpensive. That was supposed to be such an important experience in my life, especially as a woman, I will never get these moments back and Foxfire ruined that for me.
I am beyond hurt and have been trying to move past it for a month, but when you have been looking forward to something to something your entire life, it's really hard to keep moving forward.
The food was amazing at our tasting though. read more
