Why am I waiting on people to give me simple answers to simple questions?
The most annoying by far is waiting for the administrator at my church of choice to respond to my emails and phone calls and let me know that the date I have requested to get married is available. How hard can that be?
I called the church and spoke to the administrator about a month ago. I had a lovely conversation with her (my middle daughter had been christened at this church two years previously), so there is a bit of history.
Anyway the conversation was pleasant and she informed me that she'd be in touch within a week or so to confirm we could have our date and to chase her up if I hadn't heard from her. Well needless to say I didn't hear anything despite leaving a few voicemail messages, so I called again a few days later and managed to speak to her. The conversation went a bit like this:
'Hi there, it's Natalie. I enquired about getting married at your church next spring. Did you receive my email and voicemail messages as requested?'
'Yes, I'm in a meeting.'
'Ok, well could you let me know when I'm likely to hear from you?'
'I'll reply to you?'
At this point she just wanted to get me off the phone. She was abrupt and I hate to say a tad rude. I really do not like this kind of treatment. It just irritates me. You said you were going to do something, and you didn't. So I chase you as requested then I seem to get attitude. I don't get it.
I'm at the point where I don't want to keep chasing, because she may be rude again and I'll end up saying something about it. Relations will go sour and I'll end up cutting off my nose to spite my face and decide not to bother with that church. And it's a lovely church.
I guess I just need to be patient. But everything is at a standstill yet again. All things wedding has gone quiet in this household. AGAIN. *huff*
Is it normal for wedding planning to be so stop, start, yes, no, up, down and around the houses?

That must be very unpleasant =(
Fingers crossed you'll get your church! x
Sieta thanks. It's so tedious, but I'm sure things will work out albeit rather slowly. X
Strange but it's almost as if she's delaying on purpose!? It doesn't take but 2 minutes to look in a calendar and confirm a date is free... Plus if she were in a meeting why would she answer a call??
Wonder if she is trying to make the church look extra popular, like those restaurants who say they are full even when they're not?!?
Hope it all gets sorted quick!!
Tinuke it's true. What could be the hold up? I really don't understand people who behave in this way it's so uncalled for.
Either she was in a meeting or about to go into one, but she was really 'off'. I'm getting a bit tired of the whole wedding planning and I haven't even started. Lord help me.
