In your previous post about the wedding, you mentioned that you had done a lot of research regarding alcohol policy and laws in Malden. I believe the wedding reception in question was actually held in Medford, a mile or two west of the Malden/Medford line. If you really mentioned Malden in your customer communications (I'm not sure if that was deliberate obfuscation on your part or just an error in your LJ entry), that may explain why you didn't get the gig.
