Vendor disappointment

I don't have experience in this situation, and I'm so sorry you are disappointed by the outcome! I would say reach out to the vendor and explain your disappointment. While there is nothing they can change now, they may offer some sort of partial refund or gift. The worst that could happen is you don't get anything back but they learn from their mistakes.

When my parents got married something went wrong with the bridesmaids dresses and they were falling apart by the end of the night. My mom was very upset about it after so she talked to the seamstress and they got a partial refund! So it never hurts to express your feelings, even if it's after the fact.

Did you discuss your displeasure with this vendor?

Three months is a long time to dwell on an issue. It may be time to discuss with a professional so that you can move on and not let negativity effect you.

I know how you feel. I was so disappointed with my bartender. Worst of all my vendors. She was a bartender at my MILs work and she does events outside of that. I figured I was hiring a professional (even though she wasn’t/didn’t have a business or anything). She didn’t know what she was serving, used the wrong cups and napkins, lots of little stuff. It bagged at me for an entire week after. I finally sent her a very long detailed text message outlining my grievances. I asked her not to respond as I wasn’t trying to argue, and she didnt. It made me feel SO much better. I was able to put it behind me. Get it off your chest. Let them know how they didn’t meet your expectations.
