The job of a wedding planner is to interpret with the bride is asking for and what she actually wants that is the whole point. He knows what she’s asking for he’s a pro
I can't get over how the wedding planner is making expensive suggestions every time they turn around, then at the budget meeting, he has the audacity to ask where the budget is going... HELLO??? It's YOU!! It's not your wedding, sir, it's theirs! NOT YOURS!!
Yep and then like hid the cake topper. Okay too heavy? either just put the 2 figures and not the heavy base, or put the whole thing next to cake. Bar issue peed me off more.
@MM-zg4bc If he had been my planner i go to his face and said YOUR FIRED and Sandy Sicoli YOU ARE HIRED i want you to plan the wedding i like the idea of having Sandy to do it she's a woman with better ideas and you can't criticize her like that
18 years ago it was different. You would have been considered to be a terrible host if you didn't serve alcohol. They should have had real wine on the tables and maybe a few beers and then everything else be alcohol free.
Raymond is quite possibly the sweetest, most thoughtful groom I've seen on this show. To stop on his way to the church and pick up cake for the guests who arrived early was amazing. I agree with the others regarding the wedding planner. He didn't listen to the couple getting married and kept trying to convince them to spend more. Worst planner I've seen on this show.
I've been to many weddings with no alcohol. Should not be a "have to". The wedding planner needs to listen to the bride. He likes to spend the money and wants what he wants.
It was much less socially acceptable to not serve alcohol at a wedding when this was filmed, nearly twenty years ago. The range of alcohol free beverages was small and gen y were a drinking generation. But the best idea would be to have a small amount on the table- like a couple of bottles of wine and a couple of beers, and then all the non alcoholic stuff at the bar.
This is one of the most chilled I’ve seen in this series. No battling or fighting, the couple can actually talk things through. No prima donna complex other than the wedding planner. 😉
My mother would never have let me, but my shoes were almost flat. I'm the ultimate klutz and any heel higher than 1 in and I am tottering. We had already been through this argument at my sister's wedding and she knew that I was right about needing a low heel.
Weddings with NO alcohol does exist!!! There called Dry Wedding and people should be able to have a wedding without thinking that they have to have alcohol just because other people drink! 🤷♀️
Been the same. I've only been to 1 wedding that was dry and was just plain Christian music and everyone left after the food and didn't stay for anything else. It was about 3 hours away from my home. But we all would have made the concession if it wasn't so dry. My aunt, RIP god bless her soul, was a Christian and even she found it dry.
I hate that wedding planners assistant! She always has a snotty attitude and even dropped a wedding cake in a different episode. She needs a career change. Something where she doesn't need to open her mouth.
Not this clown. He's also the one who with only 5 years experience charged $10k for a $70k wedding, meanwhile another wedding planner with double his experience charged half that for also a $70k wedding!!!!
Some people have reasons for not drinking whether it be religious, recovering, PTSD, or other. Weddings are to celebrate the couple getting married, not an excuse to get drunk.
I thought the wedding planner worked for the bride and groom, since they were paying him. With this wedding planner, he planned his own fantasy wedding at the bride and groom's expense. I kept asking 'who's wedding is this'?
This wedding planner guy is a bit cocky. The bride didn't want alcohol or the choir, he kept insisting & bullying the couple about it. Then he says about being over budget I think he should of paid for it. Then spouting off about the cake topper then hiding it. I feel bad for this couple
This is the worse wedding planner and assistant ever. They never stick to the budget or to the groom or bride. Claudio is not as important as he thinks he is. It is not his wedding.
I don;t know. Because every episode they are in she just contradicts him or messes things up. She's helping at a wedding for goodness sake and she refuses to carry anything
The groom was nice. The bride was a snob.Who needs four pairs of shoes when you can't walk in heels. The wedding planner should be fired Glad they didn't use the choir.The guests needed ear plugs The only nice part of the wedding was the Bentley.
Sorry but a wedding without alcohol is very boring ... I understand when its for religions purpose or because you really cant afford IT ..but come on a wedding is a celebration ! Who does Christmas with no alcohol ?
He's a self absorbed narcissist controlling bossy attitude type who absolutely cares nothing for his clients. Only wants what matters to him. Can't stand his assistant, I remember she dropped a cake in another episode. Neither are reliable as wedding planners or assistant Bride was a total bossy self absorbed narcissist attitude. Groom was awesome. He should have ran when she bought 4 pairs of shoes on a supposed budget
This wedding planner always wants to push his own ideas on the bride and groom. Don't luke this planner at all, he gets paid to help them not try and force his own ideas.
I'm only part way through n I already don't like the assistant Sandy's attitude. She's quite rude to Claudio n as an assistant it's great to have ideas but she ain't running the show. Maybe she should try going out on her own as a planner.... Having said that, Claudio has no restraint on $$'s or ideas, but he's not the one getting married. LOL! 😁
I can already tell being around her, I'm going to need a drink, unless your entire circle on both sides are recovering alcoholics, no booze is a bad choice, people will be leaving early
By far the worst wedding planner ever!!! He needs to remember this isn’t his wedding. She didn’t want alcohol. Didn’t want to go to the winery. Didn’t want the choir. Didn’t want an extravagant cake with red berries. Then he’s stuffing his mouth with appetizer before the guests????? FIRED!!!!!!
That wedding designer and his assistant are horrible. I would run from them. A lot of people including myself don't drink and don't want to financially support drinking. If someone comes to my house for dinner and is my guest, they know they will not be served alchohol.
