In my opinion........ stay far away from The Wedding Warehouse in Colbyn, Pretoria. More caution be careful when u deal with Louis Nel. At first everything went well, he was all nice at first up and until the weekend of the wedding. All moneys were paid before arrival.
The decor arrived at the wedding venue: Mount Sheba on Friday 23 March 2018 at 22h30 in the evening, the decor was offloaded from the truck and with the help of our family members and wedding staff (to help them). We then realised that there were some items missing from their list. Only to find out that they have been working on an old inventory list. We had to pay extra money for the extras on the list, but this was not included in the truck. They brought rectangular tablecloths instead of round table cloths. They then left and said they will return on Saturday morning 07h00 24 March 2018 (wedding day). At 07h00 there was no Wedding Warehouse staff until 11h00.
We as family had to jump in and start to get this wedding organised. We hired cream draping from them only to see that it was yellow. Which we could simply not use (R10 000 down the drain). There was no staff to do the draping as we were told that the person normally handling the draping was at another function. When I phoned Louis about this, he yelled at me, swore at me, he was extremely rude. The friendly staff of Mount Sheba assisted us with as much assistance as we needed.
This is our personal experience with The Wedding Warehouse or The Wedding Party. Which ever one they want to use.
Louis is not helpful at all when you confront him with shortcomings, I was cursed at, I was made out to be a fraud, I was embarrassed at the wedding venue as he harassed the staff. I have decided to go to hellopeter.com for the simple reason of trying to avoid other bridal families falling into the same trap.
It was a wedding weekend from hell and all due The Wedding Warehouse/The Wedding Party.
