I hate the phone, it's 2014 people need to get their shit together. I used to sell to a company in Hawaii that had one email for the whole business and they checked it once a week at the most. I hate phones too but if you need something done there is no better way than person to person contact. I'm the purchasing manager at my company, i know the value of the phone but doing what i do i've learned that if you don't do email or online ordering you are losing a ton of business.

You are talking about local businesses that do a service (lighting) not businesses that just ship inventory or printed paper products etc. When I am quoting a customer and don't have stock I email suppliers. When I have a purchase order in hand I call my suppliers because it's not a quote but a sale. You are getting married not thinking about proposing and trying to get estimates about what the wedding might cost. Proposals = quotes. Wedding dates = PO in hand.

I never place an order without the vendor receiving a hard copy.

I never place an order without the vendor receiving a hard copy. I understand but you have in your case a set date. That to me equals having a hard copy in hand. Best to pick up a phone. It's not like you're dealing with Amazon or Wallmart. These are local folks & I'm willing to bet and they are used to people actually coming in the store or at least calling them. Jesus just start already.

I don't mind it, true it's a lot of money but i'm pretty sure i found the right one. I didn't jump into marriage and it was never even a thought before. I honestly never thought i'd get married but i'm feeling pretty good about this. I'm 35, it's not like i'm just getting married to get married. You only live once and if i'm going to spend a lot of money on a party, i'm going to go all out. I deserve it and she deserves it.

I knew I found the right one when she said she wanted to go to Beale St for our honeymoon. Fucking, blues/rock, drinking & BBQ.

I had thought I wanted a man named Matt to take on this honored roll however do to recent events I do not think he should be allowed anywhere near the wedding.
Sounds like he was banging the new wife
