Hehehe, bless em. I have no pity for them when they pick Xmas or Vals for their weddings, they know it's a peak time and should expect to pay more than at other times of the year. I'd be really firm with them about what I can do for them, keep it simple, bridal party only, and make them collect. If not, surely we are forcing them into the arms of kitchen sinkers? Plus, as someone else said, they will remember you for being the one that helped them out when everyone else was saying no. The fact that they didn't come to you first we should just gloss over hehe.

Mother's Day otoh, cos the date changes every year, often brides aren't aware, and every year I say to my staff, DO NOT let me take a wedding on MD weekend, and every year I relent and take pity on them, and every year it's a blimmin nightmare and I regret it. Especially the year that my staff let one girl add 5 wrist corsages to her order when my back was turned .
