A Manhattan couple are suing a hotel over claims they ruined their daughter's $37,000 bat mitzvah.
Nancy Held said in her Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit that she's been planning the event for her daughter Dori ever since she was diagnosed with a genetic predisposition to cancer in 2013.
The mom-of-two paid the Hotel Eventi, in Midtown, $37,000 for the 'once-in-a-lifetime party' on May 20. For that, the hotel would provide all the catering.
But Held says that when the big day finally came around, Eventi did not deliver.
Nancy Held paid the Hotel Eventi, in Midtown, (pictured) $37,000 for the 'once-in-a-lifetime party' on May 20. For that, the hotel would provide all the catering.
In her lawsuit, she complains that the hotel failed to offer round all the hors d'oeuvres or cocktails that she and her husband Marc had paid for.
She continues that the entrees of steak or scallops were then served 'ice cold.'
When guests complained, the kitchen sent another round of icy dishes.
The lawsuit said that the 1,200 bat mitzvah guests were so hungry, that the adults resorted to eating the kids' ice cream.
'We were starving,' Held's husband, Marc, told The New York Post. 'We were hosting the party and we didn't have any food to eat.'
The suit states that the original catering manager who was expected to mange their event had left the company shortly before. The person who was supposed to stand in for them, never showed up.
The family also claim they were charged for extras that should have been included within their agreed $37,000 contract cost.
Marc said the hotel offered them $1,000 and a night in a suite after the disastrous evening. But a friend of their later spotted that the Eventi were allegedly using photos of the Held's event to promote their services.
The couple is seeking $811,000 in damages and for copyright infringement.
The hotel declined comment on the litigation.
