Unprofessional Owner
I had the opportunity to be a part of my little sister’s big day! A day that is to be stress free for her and her future husband but was far from that. Leading up to the wedding my sister and her fiancé had nothing but one issue after another due to the unprofessional owner JoAnn. They signed their contract a year ago for their wedding and there were multiple items they were promised that unfortunately they did not receive on their big day. At the time of signing their contract the owner did NOT have a liquor license. They were allowed to bring in their own liquor and the bar vendor would be serving the liquor. Please note all vendors on her wedding day were AMAZING!! Vendors did not work for BrighterDaze Farm. Leading up to their wedding day they were told they could no longer have two full bars. JoAnn now stated that the outdoor bar would only be serving beer, wine and seltzers. My sister and her fiancé prepared to have two full bars as this was stated in their contract. One week prior to their big day my sister received yet another unprofessional email stating “head ups” the valet service is double booked and will not be able to accommodate your day, I will reimburse you. The communicate was poor and there was no apology or mention of we are doing everything we can and are looking into other services. Only I will reimburse you! Completely unacceptable. JoAnn does not have experience running a business nor understanding how to communicate with people when it comes to planning a wedding. She is in the wrong line of business and should stick to raising horses. Her day arrived and received word that the horse and carriage she booked was going to be late. Forty-five minutes late! Those that have been married understand you are on a schedule from the second you walk down the aisle to photography, dinner, first dance and the list goes on. We arrived at the venue the day after to wedding to retrieve her décor, liquor and items that were left behind. We found her entire wedding cake in the dumpster (was in the fridge the night before as majority of the cake was not touched). Her custom dog cake toppers were gone and an 800 Milwaukee leaf blower that was brought to the venue the day of to clean areas while setting up. If you want a smooth, seamless wedding with no issues leading up to your wedding day we do NOT recommend BrighterDaze Farm. Joann is the most unprofessional person and treated our families with no respect.
Response from vendor•Oct 11, 202410/05/2024 party, We seek to exceed expectations regardless of our client’s demeanor towards us. We were unable to find a suitable valet replacement, for which you were reimbursed. The carriage driver was late due to car trouble. We regret that you missed out on those amenities. However, we must address your other bizarre allegations: Most importantly, our venue’s ADA compliance was approved by the county when we received our permit. After reviewing with our team members, we learned that the cake had been thrown away per the bride’s request. Multiple team members quoted her saying “I can’t take it back to Denver.” This was verified by surveillance footage. Our four bartenders verified that they set up two full bars as requested. After bringing a U-Haul and several other vehicles full of stuff into a 10K sq. ft. venue it is absurd to assume that your leaf blower had been stolen and not simply misplaced. It was discovered during cleaning. However, we do have surveillance footage of members of your party stealing venue property and a police report has been filed. You will be receiving cease and desist letters instructing you to remove your libelous reviews. If these requests are ignored further legal action will be taken.Couldn’t have been happier
I got married here September 16th, 2023. It was beautiful. Everyone ranted and raved about the venue. The owners Jo and Adam were the BOMB! Everything was perfect.
