Angry Fed Up With Being Ripped Off

why is it hat as soon as you mention the word wedding the price doubles.

I had some flowers delivered to my mum and they cost £25. i have been quoted £40 for a similar bouquet to give to my mum as a thankyou. I should never have mentioned the W Word.

The car hie people want 300 fto pick me up and take me on a half hour trip. If i use the same company to take me to the airport it costs £75.00

Sorry to rant but it really p***es me off.

Do you feel the same or am I being mean

Tx

Unfortunatley the only thing you can do is say "No" and explain why. If more people stuck to their guns and did that things might change, but alas the average frazzled bride to be is normally willing to pay almost any amount just for the peace.
