Wedding flowers?

I had to laugh about the $400,000 law suit that the couple wanted for their wedding glowers not being the correct color.


I'm guessing they were not into the wedding. Who cares about the color of the flowers. Eyes should be on the couple. I think they should of made the flowers gifts, after all spending that much on them is sorta odd to me.


They should of just had an outdoors wedding with natural colors.


There is a reason we all don't get what we want. I think in their case its to learn about indulgence.


What do you think?

Wedding flowers?
I did not spend anywhere near that amount for my wedding flowers but I wanted the flowers I paid for. True the focus of the wedding is the bride and groom and the love story.


But there is such a thing as legally binding contracts for goods and services.
Reply:While I do agree it is stupid and ridiculous, I am not surprised. It is the American way. Sue and sue some more. Even American lawyers have malpractice lawsuits.;)





BUT, to be fair, think about it this way.





You are a couple who has paid for a specific service. You may have paid thousands of dollars. If it is true that the color of the flowers was completely different than what was ordered, then it is a breech of contract, no matter what. At the very least, the bride should have been told her wants couldn't be met.





Now, I would not sue over flower colors, but I am not surprised to hear this. I can see this happening in this day and age where couples blow $20,000 on centrepieces.





People need to get out of their bubble and see the REAL problems this world has.
Reply:I totally agree with the first poster....





While the coupel did have a contract and were wronged in the sense of that contract it does highlight a bigger issue.





Specifically that in today's world people seem obsessed about the flashyness of weddings. How many wedding's you've been to more than 3 or 4 months ago can you remember the centerpieces for?.....how about the specifics of the night like decorations?....What the invitations looked like?





Many of these things cost the couple major moola, and hours were spent agonizing over millions of choices, but few are remembered.





It's more important not to lose site of the fact that the day is about your life together with another person and not who has the biggest centerpiece :).
