Very fashionable! Not my style, but definitely cool looking and trendy!

Thanks!

I have Signature Coach purse that I have sent back to Coach twice and they cannot repair. The problem is that two corner are worn off and you can see the cable that is originally covered by the leather trim.
Any ideas on what to do, or where to send it for repair?
thanks

Why did you send it twice? What did their response letter say? Usually if they give it back 1)it was not repairable and you get a coupon off your next purchase or 2) they say it is not regular wear and tear and therefore not covered by Coach warranty.

We took the kids to the fair yesterday. Basically it was a day of walking and standing around for hubby & me. Not fun but the kids had fun and that was the point. Luckily there was cloud cover otherwise it would have been scorching.

cz22, you have and jehv3 had... as do others avatars of a particular gal and/or guy. I can't take it anymore. Will you kindly put me out of my misery and tell me who they are/who they are supposed to be? TIA

Me? Many have the twilight cast. Definitely not me though. I had Natalie Wood from Gypsy and now Princess Buttercup (Robin Wright sometimes Penn) from Princess Bride.

Okay, wedding stuff again. So the main things I care about are the color theme and the music. There are certain genres that the fiance and I do not care for, let's say country and rap. Meanwhile, his mom personally knows a DJ and can get us a good deal. Last time she mentioned the DJ, she said that she was going to have some music she wanted him to play. Get this, "10 country songs" ! I told her she can pick whatever song she wants for her dance with her son, but there is no way I am letting her include >30 minutes of music he and I will not like. She says the DJ will play them for her because he knows her personally. I feel like crying. I don't know how to convince her that it is NOT HER Wedding! Plus, his brother seems to enjoy making everyone who dislikes rap listen to rap and seems dead set about trying to get a rap request in. Though I think that will be a little easier to make clear to the DJ that the answer is no. I would like to talk to the DJ personally sometime soon. Need to get the contact info from the future MIL...

We had this issue to a small degree years ago with our DJ. We told them NO counrty, we do not like it. They said but people like it, we said it isn't THEIR wedding. They played it anyway, when we were out of the room for a minute. I truely felt like not paying them the full fee. Oh course we had to, but I didn't want to and certainly did not recommend them to anyone. They seemed to know better than to send someone for a reference, because no one ever called us about them. Good luck!

... and thanks for the info.

Thanks for the support strawberry! I felt a little selfish at first, but the more I thought about it, the more upset I got. We shouldn't have to have music that my fiance and I do not like.

Your story makes me so mad! The DJ should listen to you!

OK Bag Lady · Jul 8th, 2009, 08:22 AM

Can you put a provision in the contract that if they include anything but your playlist they're deducted a set amount of money per song?

Great idea! I wonder if they would agree to that.

Though I think the future MIL would have a heat attack if I suggested something like that to her DJ buddy who is already offering a good discount... though I may have to mention something of the sort, especially if I will continue to look at other options.

OK Bag Lady · Jul 8th, 2009, 08:57 AM

Let them think you'll go somewhere else. Who says shopping for DJs can't be like shopping for cars. You give me this ______ or I go down the street to the next business. She's letting you think she's doing you a favor but you're also doing her buddy a favor, hun. Businesses are hurting now.

cz22 · Jul 8th, 2009, 09:05 AM

Thanks! I will do research into all the other nearby DJs and then get his contact info so I am armed and ready to discuss the music and negotiate. I had previously only been considering bands (then also wouldn't have to worry about the other genres), but started considering DJs to make the wedding more cost effective.

I'm curious, did anyone else read Perez Hilton's take on MJ's service yesterday? I follow him, other entertainment news, and network news channels on Twitter. Tweet after tweet was on my phone from each that I follow describing their emotional responses, especially to little Paris. Then I got to Perez Hilton's and his take was "NO, NO, NO! Don't put her through this!" He went on to say that yesterday was the fifteenth anniversary of his father's funeral and he's barely been able to keep it together during his dad's funeral, and he knew it had to be nearly impossible for her to stand up there. He wasn't putting them down for having her speak, just emotionally identifying with her pain.
