I swear I am not making this up. A New York City bride is suing her florist for breach of contract because, she alleges, the flowers were the wrong color. And how much is this worth to her? $400,000 should cover the heartbreak and outrage. The bride, who is a lawyer, had this to say in the suit, "The use of predominantly pastel centerpieces had a significant impact on the look of the room and was entirely inconsistent with the vision the plaintiffs had bargained for." According to the lawsuit, the flowers cost $27,435.14. The lawsuit seeks over $400,000 in restitution and damages.
The florist claims he did his best to match the color to a photo the bride had provided, and that he explained to her that the match may not be exact.
To all of this, I say come on. Can't you be happy enough that you're getting married that you can shrug off some funny-colored flowers. If you can afford $27,000 for them, you can afford a little photoshop editing for your album. Sheesh!
