Do Not Use R&C Beach weddings
As a bride , you dream of this special day and how it is going to play out ... Well , My daughters was this weekend . It was supposed to be a different park . Instead we had the wedding at the park across from the office. The wedding was to take place at 7 pm instead it took place at 2:30 during the rain, and we were made aware that once ceremony starts it can't be stopped due to rain. My daughter and fiancé both had to sign I guess a release ... the entire experience was not handled professional at all... I understand that that can happen but ... we had guest that had to relocate to the new location, there were to be 16 chairs, there were not. ( had elderly guest ) The chairs that were there did atleast have the white covers with the champagne sashes. We were to have a shell ceremony that was in the pkg. I paid for , we did not. The blue tooth speaker I paid to rent either wasn't there or didn't work - did not hear the music. My daughter was in tears before walking because of all the stress of this . This was supposed to be her special day . I've planned for months. My pkg also had unlimited communication - it was limited. I tried several times since Jan. To meet Crystal - drove over several times but was always unable to meet. We had an appointment to meet while my daughter was in Florida , she couldn't meet that day either. Two days before the wedding after my daughter and her fiancé flew to Florida we tried to reach her several times. She had told me July 19, that she would touch base before the wedding to make sure once more of what was supposed to be in the ceremony- (chairs, colors, decor...etc.) . We were starting to wonder about it all . Finally we did get a text from her that afternoon , she assured us it all would be good !
The decor was not like the pics she was sent and said she could resemble, except for the type chairs and the arch. That was ok . There was to be large shepherds hooks -to hold the large greenery spheres - there were NOT. The young man going back and forth to the location said he was sick of this S.... Nothing and I mean nothing was like it was supposed to be . She asked me several times if I was ok-- well I was not I was trying to hold it all together . The wedding coordinator is the one that should provide what was paid for - there was complete instructions of the look , and everything. The bride, attendants, brides mom and photographer were all stressed out. Before rushing the bride and attendants across the street, I told her they are not walking until the photographer is here . There had been a wreck , he was behind us and got delayed . If not, we wouldn't have even had pics of the bride, groom or ceremony . The photographer who has done many weddings told me he has never seen a wedding be handled like this one was by the wedding coordinator .
After the short ceremony , several times she was called - she did not answer the calls...
None of us are impressed of how this wedding took place. 😡
I would Not recommend R&C beach weddings to anyone !!!
