    You didn’t wear white to a wedding, you wore a BLACK dress with a TINY amount of white lace to a wedding. Also, what the hell kind of wedding party was being hosted? I want to go to this wedding.

      I don't think the friend quite understands it was a black gown with a WHITE LACE OVERLAY not a white gown with a WHITE LACE OVERLAY and the bride and groom didn't have a problem with their niece wearing the dress they had a big problem with the wait staff ruining their niece's dress which is understandable their niece spent a lot of money on that dress and it was ruined because someone was a CLUTZ

    For me things that don't count are;
    1. White Jackets, blazers and coverups
    2. White decorations
    3. White as backgroundcolour dresses with colour and print, as long as they are not floorlength and mostly colour.
    Don't look like a bride would and honour the dresscode. When in doubt, ask.

      ​@@SingingSealRiana I guess it kinda depends on the silouette and the background-pattern ratio. If the dress is more florals than white background, or if it has white polka dots or stripes, I guess it doesn't count as "wearing white", but if the dress is basically a white dress with one occasional flower per square meter of fabric, it definitely isn't appropriate.

      I've just realized I once wore white to a wedding 😮
      It was like 15 years ago. I didn't want to buy anything new so I wore the dress I wore for my prom. The basic color of the dress was white but: - it was knee length, - it had a print: golden stripes all over it and a row of golden beaded fringe at the bottom.
      I didn't know about the no white rule back then so luckily the dress didn't look bridal at all (the bride wore a standard long wedding gown).

    I wore a cream colored pants suit and floppy hat to a wedding related function, not the actual wedding or reception. I got a few looks I didn't understand (I was young and ignorant) but the bride ran up to me with a huge smile on her face, hugged me and told me I looked like a movie star. The bride was wearing a green dress for this outdoor function. For the actual wedding and reception, I wore a blue dress and toned down my hair and makeup because I wasn't used to anyone telling me I looked good or pretty. Years later, I look back on this and realize people thought I was trying to upstage the bride to be. The bride, who remained my friend for years, didn't think this at all. This was in the 70's. Ah, life. I may not have had the best upbringing, but I sure did learn quickly. (But especially appreciated the wonderful people who took the time to help me rather than hurt me into that learning.)

    I got married when I was 21, my cousin was a bridesmaid but it was also on the same day as her senior prom! She made it work and did both events. I invited her back after the prom with her friends for the party. Her friend came without not knowing she would be coming to a wedding and her prom dress. It was a white ballgown. She was so uncomfortable at 18 yrs old that she refused to come in. I went outside to talk to her. Let her know she was welcome and how beautiful she looked. I told her no one would care it's the after party. She finally came and enjoyed her senior prom/ wedding crashing. Somethings are out of your control. Even at her age, she knew it was a no for weddings!!! No one really noticed, there was enough drama already.

      This couple are the exact opposite of Zillas! Someone might think they were picky with the staff But, they paid for exemplary service, but chose the wrong company! The management or owner should have taken the snobby server off of the schedule until she has had proper training!
      At first I thought she was clumsy because she knew they didn't want her & trying while worrying is a bad combination! But it was her attitude at the tasting dinner that put the couple off! So they were right about her snobby attitude! With what all she said, makes me wonder if it was on purpose?! I also wonder if she said that crazy crap directly to them? Or was it when you say something kinda under your breath, like mumbling to yourself, but making sure they can hear every word! "Oh, I'm sorry! Did I say that out loud?" Yah, damn Right you Did! She is prejudice against rich people!

    I was all ready to defend the working class, aka Ms. Clumsy Waitress, when they were talking about her being nervous, then shaking and crying. People's nerves can get the better of them when they are suffering from anxiety, and since we don't know her story, we can't say if she's in a dire financial situation and this job is all that stands between her and homelessness. I said "I was" until that last update with her behavior at the rehearsal dinner. How many of you think she's family (or family friend) of the the caterer? That's the only reason I can think of that she wasn't fired before the wedding! Who thinks they can talk to customers like that? Especially since it sounds like rich aunt/uncle were not being crazy bride/groomzilla, they just wanted an elegant, formal dining event for their big day?

      She didn't insult the bride and groom though. What was said was that she was "rude and cold" and that's pretty vague. Maybe that means actively insulting them (although I doubt the bride and groom would just quietly ask the manager not to send her if that were the case), maybe they just didn't like the tone of her voice or her general 'vibe'.

You’ve made me very cautious about what I wear to weddings, so I took a picture and simply sent it to the bride. I said is this too sparkly? Is this ok? She said it was perfect!!

    I went to a wedding and wore this deep blue knee length spaghetti strap dress and a cotton white cover since I don't like wearing spaghetti strap/strapless dresses without some kind of cover or shawl. And someone there tried saying I was wearing white to the wedding and that I needed to take it off. It wasn't even like it reached the length of the dress and could be mistaken as a white dress from the back, it covered my shoulders and buttoned right below my chest, not even reaching my waist.

My teacher also taught us the 'right' way to introduce people to each other, and how to work the seating arrangements around the table. We would have been ready to meet the Queen Mother.

      Yeah.... I'm a server as my day job. Sometimes I have cat-like reflexes, but I do have some really bad days where I've lost entire trays. Not on purpose or through carelessness, my body just doesn't quite do what I ask it to. But that's why I can never do fine dining or event catering. My coordination just isn't consistent enough. Instead, I work at a place where dropping dishes has a 25% chance of prompting guests to shout, "OPPA!" It's not ideal to drop plates, but it's not a huge deal.
      Ps the comment "why didn't she try to catch it?" Because trying to catch what your dropped mid-air almost ALWAYS makes the situation 10x worse. Just let it hit the ground instead of potentially smacking it into someone's face and showering them with wine and broken glass.

Come on, that manager and their company behaved in a shamelessly unprofessional manner from rehearsal through the reception.

      poverty mindset from that waitress. bitterness, jealousy, and hatred for people who have money is literally programming yourself to never have money. you get what you put out; if you tell the universe "money bad" the universe says "as you wish" and you get no money. it's a weird comparison, but i struggled with learning to swim, didnt swim until i was 9. i learned by being grateful my friend COULD swim; i watched her and appreciated her skill and inwardly celebrated her freedom to glide in the water, instead of being jealous like i had been before. as i celebrated her, i found myself floating and *poof* i could swim from that day on. if we did the same about money and 'success' and celebrate others, we would discover their successes and wealth finds its way into our lives as well.

    I was a server for a short period of time for a casual dining restaurant. I KNEW I couldn’t carry a tray with one arm, and never did so. My only “accident” was slipping on a spill on the floor and slipped and fell with a full pitcher of ice water that flew EVERYWHERE. We offered to pay for any clothing damages, but everyone declined.
    I didn’t quit because I couldn’t do the job. I quit because I always ended up closing when other servers were allowed to leave as service slowed. Closing included putting up more than 200 chairs, doing all the ketchups, salts/peppers, clean all the tables and mop. If someone walked in a 5 minutes before close, I had to take down ALL of the chairs, take orders and take them to the pissed off kitchen staff. This was always on a Friday/Saturday. We also had a crap ton of booths.
    I mentioned this to my manager several times but nothing changed. I’d finally had ENOUGH! One Saturday when I was scheduled I didn’t show up to work. The first and last time in my life I ever did that. The manager called me the next day and furious doesn’t even describe her phone call. She said they had been SLAMMED the night before and it was all my fault. She said she was going schedule me for every Friday/Saturday from then on and I would close every night. I told her no that wasn’t to happen because I’d already worked my last shift and to fuck herself. That felt so good. I did have two other jobs at the time, so I was good.

ALL i wanted to do was go home. it was late and i was tired INSTEAD you'd have to wait for the night manager to be done doing whatever they did in the back with the money before you and the maybe 2 other ppl in the store could leave. I get needing the 'security' when they are back there dealing with that money but forcing a teenager to stay there until 1-2 maybe 3 in the morning cause you're slow af... is INSANE.

    Best friend got married at my cottage this summer. And her evil sister-in-law showed up to my cottage to go into one of the glamping tents with a full-on white bridle gown from David's bridle. It even had a train. Thankfully. My little dog is as nosy as hell and was going in and out of the open tents to see. Maybe if anybody had dropped any food in there. And when I went to collector I saw the white dress hanging on the the rack. When confronted about the dress, she proceeded to have a temper tantrum that did over $10,000 worth of damage to my cottage. And another $6,000 worth of damage to vendors equipment. She was told to leave. She didn't and continued to try to vandalize and break more things. I had to call the RCMP. It was nuts. No one in the family has talked to her since except her mother. And even that's pretty limited. And we're going through court to get reimbursed for the damages done to the cottage. My friend and her fiance reimburse vendors for their damaged And are now going after sister-in-law to return the money. So no, when we say you don't wear white to a wedding, we don't mean white accents. We mean a dress that can be a full-on bridle gown.

      If she does not IMMEDIATELY pay in full, take the court judgement and garnish her wages. In California, wage garnishment is good for ten years and can be renewed every ten years until the debt is paid. Don't let it expire or you have to start the civil process over again from the start.

When we had formal sit-down dining with multiple courses the week before the event, all staff were required to come in a few extra shifts. The pourpose of this was to ensure all staff know the proper etiquette, and are comfortable with their rolls in the service. They practiced carrying trays, practiced setting the table, practice placing the plates and practiced removing the unneeded dishes. This went on for a week. Anyone who wasn't able to handle everything was not on that particular event. This incident could have been prevented, and the manager is 100% at fault.

The room was so full, people kept tripping us over with chairs while we were trying to manoeuvre the very tightly packed room full of table and chairs etc. It was one of my worst days on the job, but id only been working for a few weeks and my job was to serve on the bar, not work the dinner service. The manager would pull us from the bar to help during the dinner service, but that meant I had no practice clearing tables or pouring wine in such a packed environment.
    My boss was great and made sure the dress was taken care of and I apologised profusely to the poor girl. I was mortified, but I also feel the fact that I had no experience serving like that and it wasn't my actual job means it wasn't entirely my fault. The managers should've thought it through better.

    Listen, I'm a server. Would never be able to serve this kind of event without prior special training, I've never worked a black tie event. I solely work restaurant. Charlotte, you are so right about those trays. I'm not a big strong person, I'm on the small side and I'm regularly carrying about 15 full water glasses out on one tray in one hand. Nothing's worse than balancing the tray in one hand while also trying not to brain a guest putting their cup down.
    I feel really bad for the waitress. She was set up for failure. She never should've been allowed to work that event, period. Listen, if every server got fired because a customer complained about them, there wouldn't be any waitstaff. Sometimes it's fully on the customer or they're blowing something small way out of proportion. So I don't agree that she should've been fired because of the rehearsal, but she shouldn't have ever worked that event. She made a bunch of costly mistakes, I'm not taking the blame off of her, but the only asshole was the manager. She entered the workplace stressed, which caused her to make mistakes, which made her even more stressed, and it snowballed from there.
    Edit: I hadn't reached the final edit when I made my comment, but I'm leaving the above part because I think some of it still stands. Should've been fired for the rehearsal, but I'm not surprised she wasn't. She was an asshole. I still think the manager was more so.

    5:22 thank you Charlotte...I've been sitting here thinking (during multiple wedding videos) "oh no! I wore a white dress to my best friend's wedding! I showed it to him before the wedding and he approved! I was pregnant, and that's what I could fit into, and I couldn't afford *at the time* a fancier dress" for clarification, it was a white dress, with BIG pink flowers and green leaves with a pink shirt thing that went over my shoulders and top area...it looked (to me) more pink than white...so, this makes me feel so much better that white sun dresses/floral dresses are ok to wear, as long as there are patterns on them and the white isn't overwhelming! Lol. It's been a year, and I'm finally able to say *phew* haha 😂

    Random: Please never pick up or put something down on a server's tray. Let them hand it to you or hand it to them, unless they make eye contact and give you the "go ahead" look. It's harder than it looks. When it looks really easy in movies, it's because things are glued. When it looks easy in real life, it's because they are champs.

    • @reeeyou

      @dianacarbonate Месяц назад +1

      ​@@reeeyou I was a great dishwasher, runner, busser, etc., but I was never a good server. I don't know if it was because I wasn't trained (one girl deliberately trained me wrong so she could have my tables and took my tips) or if I just wasn't cut out for it (ADHD coupled with anxiety). I later found that this girl was dating one of the managers and they were messing with everyone's money. I don't smoke, but when I didn't have any customers, I would sit with the smokers and read the newspaper. Aforementioned manager would grab it out of my hands and say they don't pay me to read. While my coworkers sit there smoking. One day, I actually jumped over the railing of the patio while I was in the middle of taking a drink order because I saw a dog I used to walk. Baruch. I loved him. So worth it. When the manager was drunk, he told me that he hired me because of my boobs. I was 21. When they closed the patio for the year, they didn't bother to tell me that I no longer had a job. The only nice manager had to awkwardly tell me when I came in for my nonexistent shift. Adrian, it was not your fault, and that was bullshit.

    I worked for a catering staffing company while in grad school. One guess about why they couldn't get rid of clumsy server is that staff numbers are really important for black tie service. Though surely they could have given her table setting tasks, not send her to the bridal suite!
    So in black tie service, the entire table is supposed to be served at the same time, with all plates set down in unison. We'd line up in the kitchen area and be given plates for each table in the seating order (one plate in each hand). We then walked to the table indicated by the captain indicating the first chair, walk clockwise so everyone was behind a seat, then set down together, with some places wanting you to set down your two plates at once. Everything is designed around this, like head chef is plating based on this list, another captain checks before servers walk out, and so on. If we were short staffed, one of the captains has to fill in, then there's less people keeping things organized. Otherwise it slows down service. So they probably felt like they needed the staff numbers or it would cause other problems.
    If you're at a fancy wedding, this service is also a reason to not switch around seating after servers check your meal choice at a table. Or at least be prepared to have to swap plates. Also also NO CELLPHONES ON DINNER PLATES. No anything in the spot where plates go if you can help it. Most times we were a well oiled machine, but when you have a very hot plate in each hand, a cell phone or purse in the way really slows everything down. I enjoyed working events, dinner service was normally the only stressful part of the entire shift.

      During the rehearsal dinner, she couldn't even plate right. She had no business being at the wedding period after her actions at the rehearsal dinner, not plating right being the least of them. In this instance, I find it very hard to believe they served everyone at a long table of 40ish people (20:30) in unison, so that doesn't really make sense but even if that were the case, I fully believe they would have accepted slightly slower service over what happened.

She was SOOOO nice to me, the club picked up the dry cleaning and oddly no one was mad at me…probably because I was crying…haha. I got better at it, but I was better at lifting the clean up trays (tall and strong) than I was at formal dining service. I am excellent at customer service, but would get so nervous around all the fine dining “rules”…was only there 6 months before going back to the kind of retail I was used to and really good at.
