“Weddings. Everything about a wedding is incredibly overpriced and so far booked out for no real reason.”

“I used to work at a little seaside place that would take wedding bookings. Someone would call and ask about a wedding, then be told, ‘Oh, we’re booked out until next year! Yeah, everyone wants to have a wedding here, sorry!’ then take down their number. A week later, they’d call them and say something like, ‘Oh, it looks like so and so isn’t able to make the booking, do you want it?’ Then they’d basically triple the price they advertised online. They would use this method multiple times a week, and as a result people were foaming at the mouth trying to get in there. The only time they took real bookings was for known locals.”
