Bride-to-be left distraught after email from dessert company

Disgraceful behaviour.

Cathy Donohue

Zero chill.

I’m not sure how Amanda de Pascale managed to keep her cool after receiving the rudest email imaginable but somehow, she did.

The Long Island native is due to get married in February and at the moment, she’s knee deep in preparations for the big celebration.

Keen to do something different for her guests, Amanda got in touch with Sweetery, a New York-based dessert company, to see about the possibility of setting up a sweet-themed food truck at the wedding party.

In conversation with Fox News, she explained:

“My fiancée and I wanted something a little different for our wedding and we thought it would be so fun to have a food truck for our guests to get little sweets”.

However, after investigating how much it would cost, Amanda and her partner decided it was over and above their budget and didn’t think too much about it, until a few days later.

She explained how she had told the company she wouldn’t require their services but they kept badgering.

They called a number of times and then Amanda received an email, purportedly from a Sweetery employee,  the contents of which can only be described as atrocious.

I won’t include the entire diatribe as it really is horrible but there is a snippet below and if you want to read more, Amanda explained the lengthy email in full to Fox News here.

“How many times have we called you to follow up on the proposal that we expanded time and effort to produce based on your request and each and every time you cowardly hang up the phone on us when we identify who is calling, what an absolute low life twisted miserable individual you have to be”.

It’s believed that the company has since issued an apology and the employee who wrote the email has been fired.

Nonetheless, the experience proved very distressing for the couple and Amanda says she hopes no other “bride or customer” has to experience the same treatment.
