Cheap Bride...this is ridiculous...what would you have done? - Page 10

Sorry guys, I didn't know that this thread was still active, I hadn't gotten a notice on your responses. Anyway, to catch you up, after she sent me that e-mail she ended up calling me and I agreed to do it, I know I am a sucker but I insisted that told hold her date I needed a $200 deposit. She asked for my address and said she would be sending it out. I sent her a flavor list and told her that when I got her check I would call and we could set up a tasting...of course a few weeks past and no check. I emailed her an told her I hadn't received anything, and I had another bride interested in that date, but since she had come to me first I wanted to check with her once more. She e-mailed me back that I should give that date to the other bride because they were making it themselves. I just wrote back no problem and if she ever needed my services in the future she could contact me. I am happy that it turned out that way, because she prob. would have caused more problems for me. She was so wishy washy and just a handful...it is probably best it happened that way and by the way, if she ever contacts me again, I will just respond that I am booked.

Thanks,
Sarah

It sounds like that was for the best! I mean she couldn't send you an email telling you that she had changed her mind about the cake?

And a homemade cake, made by people who don't make cakes? Ummm...it sounds like it might belong on cake wrecks.

I have a feeling that you have not heard the last of this bride.

I am dying to see that cake! WOuld love to be a fly on the wall! Kills me how people plan a marriage but don't budget for the cake. And now bloggers say you don't need cake, have a bunch of candy and brownies and crap. I love the whole cake ceremony, and the pictures.

I would rather make 1 cake for $150, than 3 for $50 each.

The person who works for nothing will always have plenty to do!

My sarcasm is good-humored. People generally really like me, in person ;-)

As I tell my brides, it's as much of a wedding ceremony as the garter toss, the kiss after the I Do's, the first dance. etc.
