A gay couple are considering taking legal action after a luxury hotel on Loch Lomond allegedly refused to consider hosting their wedding because of their sexual orientation.
John and Stephen Devaney, from Baillieston in Glasgow, said the owner of the Loch Lomond Waterfront, Suzanne Cottam, ushered us out after they said they were looking for a wedding venue.
Cottam declined requests for an interview but the hotel released a statement firmly denying the Devaneys allegations, describing them as false and seriously defamatory claims that had led to a surge in abusive calls to the hotel.
In the latest row about alleged homophobia in the hotel trade, John Devaney told the Daily Record: She couldnt hide her disgust. She told me: We cant allow people like you in here, and said gay marriage was against her beliefs.
I told her she was entitled to her beliefs but gay marriage was now legal. She just said she was the owner so she could say and do as she liked.
She then told us marriage should be between one man and one woman only not two men like us, or two women. The woman just ushered us out, as her wedding planner stood there utterly embarrassed and in disbelief.
However, the hotel said: Suzanne Cottam did not say the words attributed to her, nor would she do so because of her Christian faith and her belief in the dignity of all people.
Due to the hysterical nature of the reporting, we have been inundated with foul, abusive and sometimes threatening messages. Suzanne has an independent witness who was present throughout the conversation and can back up her version of events.

I call bulls hit.
What is it with these people? Go to some other place.
I am really getting sick and tired of these people trying to strong-arm PRIVATE businesses into providing services for their FREAK show. It is the owner’s choice to say yes or no.
Read the Bible (Sodom and Gomorrah) and you’ll see exactly how aggressive and intolerant homosexuals can ultimately get. I think it’s part of their rebellion against the natural order. They simply cannot tolerate ANY dissent, because it shines light on their own depravity. They parade their sins with pride...sadly.
The Gay Mafia at work.
The Rule of Law has gone into hiding, because real men cannot be found.
I do
It wasn’t so much the wedding. It was the sacrificing the Christian virgin at the reception that had the hotel up in arms. /sarc
There’s a place where they can go. The Teheran Iran Hilton. Go there and see if you can sue them.
Why don’t gays have their wedding at gay resorts? Get their wedding cakes baked at gay bakeries...and have gay photographers, too.
Lying F****!!! Trying deliberately to attack Christians with their sickness. They are an extension of ISIS
Insightful and excellent post.
I heard of a worse one than any of this.
A Christian florist, who was good friends with a homosexual man and had provided him flowers for years,
referred him to other florists for his “wedding”.
The man didn’t make ANY stink of it, but Washington state’s AG went after her with the full fury of hell.
Trying deliberately to attack Christians
This IS what the “gay agenda” is about !
Until people understand that it is NOT about “equal rights for homos”,
and that that’s just an excuse for persecuting Christians
(to the point of criminalization of beliefs)
then you’re going to continue to be bewildered
and continue to lose the fight.
Understand the goals of the left and don’t fall for their facade of benevolence.
Yes...sickening isn’t it....in a normal world that AG would be removed from his position.
God I hope she has a recording of this conversation and files a Slander/Libel suit and puts them both into BANKRUPTCY FOR LIFE.
Oh my dear FRiend, you must know by now that it most certainly is not the owner's choice. And I predict ten years from now we'll look back on today with fondness, recalling the time when at least we weren't paying LGBT Reparations Tax or required to attend "mental wellness" seminars on tolerance in order to have health insurance.
That’s exactly right.
