Business ProfileforRock Creek Country Club

Right before COVID hit, I was helping my close friends plan their wedding here. Although the interior of the building was more dilapidated than we would have liked, the outdoor scenery was beautiful and ultimately we were just excited to finally pick a date and start planning. COVID threw a wrench in the plans of course, but we were happy to work with the venue to find a replacement date.I can't even describe the frustration of being on the other end of an email with the management of this club. To get a response at all, let alone a response that made sense, was like pulling teeth for my friends. The biggest grievance among many was that the bride's family lives in ******* and were legally unable to travel to attend the wedding in the short window they permitted a reschedule -- a window they were never even contractually obligated to. This was among MANY last minute contract changes that made my responsibilities as Maid of Honor extremely difficult. How can someone in good faith expect a daughter to get married without her parents present? In my opinion, it was clear that they no longer wanted to honor the event we had planned, but rather wanted us to relinquish the deposit so they could line their pockets during COVID.As a MOH, you are tasked with a lot of crazy things, but I never anticipated being tasked with compiling screenshots of emails for a small claims court date. Every other vendor was a breeze to work with; **** was a complete nightmare. I would never recommend anyone host their event at **** unless they like feeling held hostage by a deposit and unanswered emails.
