To have cancelled my wedding?

I feel such a fool Blush

We were due to have a wine tasting for our wedding this weekend, but due to various work related cock-ups we can’t make it. I emailed the co-ordinator at the hotel late last night to briefly explain and cancel. We’d booked a meal in the hotel for after.

I typed this ‘unfortunately we can’t make the trip up for the wine tasting this weekend, so please can I cancel that and the wedding we were due to have? Apologies for any inconvenience this might cause!’

CANCEL THE WEDDING.

I’ve not been answer my phone today. The hotel did get through to DP. He was very surprised about the cancelled wedding and says he knew nothing about it. They got flustered on the phone and just said ‘we’re really sorry, this must be a big shock to you as well’ but then reminded him that sadly they wouldn’t be able to refund the deposit.

He couldn’t get hold of me so text my MOH to ask if she knew about the cancelled wedding.

I finally listened to my voicemails and was totally baffled until I re-read that email.

I’ve had to convince them that we would still like to have a wedding Blush

That’s definitely going to turn up in someone’s speech at your wedding!

Oh your poor DP!

Must have made your MOH 🙀 too, that this was the first she was hearing of it!

If I was your DP I ‘might’ genuinely be worried that it was a Freudian slip. You might need to really reassure him if it wasn’t. If it was, it might be time to face up to it?! Hope not though 💐

I was anxious there for a moment that you found you’d lost your wedding booking! What a priceless typo.
Hope the day goes well

THat's hilarious (only because you were able to sort it out, of course). Wink

Hopefully, your husband to be sees the funny side. Grin

Omg your poor fiancé might have thought this is how you were telling him! Haha!
Sorry for all the stress OP, but glad you got it re-confirmed and a great story!

It’s alright...he thinks it’s funny....

Although I hope it’s not a Freudian slip!!! I have been pretty lax about doing my share of organising admin-this bits of —boring— necessary bits....

Sorry, I sound really jambled in my writing (no wonder I made such a massive typo)

It’s partly because I’m drinking some wine, and also because my keyboard is inexplicably set to French, I am not French.
