So i emailed a few prospective venues yesterday asking for more information and to arrange a viewing... the 1st one got back to me straight away and the woman was very friendly, "oh thats wonderful!" "looking forward to meeting you!" etc etc. and the 2nd one... well, he got my name wrong & just ... didn't seem very friendly - the email was very brief ... not sure if i'm just being over sensitive and should ignore it but part of me thinks, if they can't even be arsed to be nice when they're making a sale how are they gona be if i book the venue? hmmmm, thoughts ??

I would still go and meet them. It may be the case that whoever sent the email isn't the one who would be dealing with your wedding so don't rule them out just yet xx

I think you arent over reacting, i mean if he suppose to be running a business that is venues for weddings, you would expect him to be more business like and remember your name etc, especially if the email was brief, i have my own business, and i know for fact that if i forgotten someones name, and send them a short email, they arent going to be happy about it, especially if that person was going to get you some business and think about actually going for your company.
All i can say if they cant be arsed to be nice now, i wouldnt take it any further because they could just get worse over time.

Yeah i'll still view it, but it's definitely put a spot on their record and i haven't even seen the place yet!! there's about 5 other wedding venues within a 10 - 15 minute drive of this place, so you'd think they'd do their best to be getting custom!!
I'd also still go for a viewing, you may find that you are dealing with someone else. But I would definitely put in the negative column when weighing the pros and cons of this venue.

I hear what you're saying. I emailed quite a few venues - some didn't get back at all (and it was to their generic email address not to a specific person). It's bad manners and not a good work ethic.
CommentAuthorLauraJo87
I totally agree - we had a similar thing and it was a big black mark against them.
To be honest, at one stage we were torn between two venues, and the friendliness/helpfulness/rapport with the coordinatorr was pretty much the deciding factor.
That said, if it's just the first email, as others have said it may not be the person dealing with the wedding xx

I would still go see them, you never know the person who was sending the email might have been in a rush/had a bad day/been new that day. Give them the benefit of the doubt until you meet them. x
