It seems that Jordan A. Maney is not as committed to “diversity” and “love” as she would have us believe. Recently, Ms. Maney, the black owner of a San Antonio event planning business, “All The Days Event Co.,” got a bit upset when she was asked to plan the wedding for a couple whose chosen venue contained the word “plantation.” ...
As ATTN also notes, Maney also told the inquiring customer on the receiving end of her discrimination, “You’re having a wedding at a grave-site essentially. How are you going to laugh and celebrate on so many people’s blood, and sweat, and suffering?” Of course, built in 2011, strictly for the purpose of hosting weddings, Kendall Plantation has never had anything to do with slavery. Yet, like many who are so easily offended in these sensitive times, the mere mention of “plantation” was enough to rile Ms. Maney.
Furthermore, after rejecting her plantation client, Maney went to her Facebook page, and in a post that is no longer available, declared (yes, in all caps): “DON’T CALL MY BLACK-OWNED BUSINESS ASKING ME TO PLAN YOUR PLANTATION WEDDING.”
Now imagine for a moment the tables were turned.

No matter what one thinks of her “reasoning” she should have the right to say NO
Just as other wedding planners, bakers, photographers, ministers et al should have the right to say NO
I agree, and so does Mr. Thomas.
Don’t call my black owned business. Yeah OK if you insist...I guess I won’t.
What the heck are Plantation Weddings?
She should face the same fate as a Christian baker who refuses to bake a cake for a gay wedding.

Probably not.
Exactly — and you should have the right to say no to gay weddings.
“She should face the same fate as a Christian baker who refuses to bake a cake for a gay wedding.”
This wedding planner is in Texas and would not violate a law by refusing a plantation wedding or a gay wedding.
BTTT
There are plenty of plantations that are happy to host weddings. She should skip the wedding planner and contact the plantation directly.
There are several plantations in Maine that have and never had even the slightest thing to do with slavery or black people.
Easy solution.
After the lawsuit, she won’t own the business anymore.
Many churches have graveyards on their grounds but still host weddings.
Bake the damn cake
>>This wedding planner is in Texas and would not violate a law by refusing a plantation wedding or a gay wedding.
Depends where in the state you are (and it could still be pursued up to the Supremacist Activist God Fairies In Black Dresses).
A Texas-based gay couple is crying foul after they say they were turned down by a reception venue who refused to host their forthcoming wedding.
...As NBCNFW points out, the All Occasion Party Place is located outside the Fort Worth city limits, and therefore doesn’t fall under the city’s anti-discrimination code. Still, the case has nonetheless sparked the ire of local lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights advocates.

When one of these cases came up in another state, same sex marriage wasn’t even legal in the state but the business was found “guilty” of discrimination (for a non-legally binding ceremony).
I guess we’ll have a lawsuit. Do my damn wedding!
Would be totally fitting.
Libtadds cant be the only ones who can say no to clients but conservatives get sued out of existence when they say no.
Let’s not forget that the official name of Rhode Island is “State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations”.
Some slaves worked in rural areas. And mansions. And small buildings...
NO MORE WEDDINGS. JUST REPARATIONS.
