Brides Beware 11/30/2011

A TOTAL NIGHTMARE!!!!! Brides beware this is not a place you want your ceremony at for the price! We felt so good about having our wedding at the Pavilion. Even though it was so expensive – we wanted it to be a memory that we would always cherish. People commented on how special and beautiful it would be to have it there. We had our wedding in the great hall on stage.How embarrassing and what a disappointment! A sad memory we will always have! The gift table skirt on backwards so the skirt faced the wall and the ugly back of the table showing – that’s the first thing our guests saw, dinner table clothes on lop sided - a few inches on one side and way long on the other and not just one, but several of them. What quality of help does the Pavilion have? Allyson even tried to stand in front of the gift table to hide it – when I bought to her attention ( this was when the mothers were being escorted in by the groom in for the ceremony) she said yes she saw it and would fix it. Too bad all our guests had already saw how particular and how much time was spent on details by the Pavilion for our event when they walked in to be seated. And why wasn’t Allyson checking on these things before the event even started? Allyson was never on site that’s why. She said she would be there the whole night, but every time we needed her she had to be paged and would show up 10 – 15 minutes later. Also during the ceremony the que's for the music was horrible when transitioning from our unity ceremony, and back to song when walking out. The wedding party the bride and groom stood there and looked like complete fools after the ceremony had ended there was almost a minute lag before the music actually started playing to que them to walk out. How horrible does that look? Shouldn’t the Pavilion take more pride in their facility – their work? Is this common? The Pavilion puts on many events including concerts and what not..so how is it they couldn't get the music or slideshow to work seamlessly? when I played it on multiple dvds. more
