Refund and Cancellation
Like India, in the United States too marriage venues have to be booked well in advance. But sometimes advance planning may land the bride and the bridegroom in trouble, as it happened with a couple in New York.
-
Apparently, after the pair set a date to tie the knot, cracks began in their love life, which finally ended up with a break-up. So they cancelled the wedding. But when it came to the marriage venue, they were in for a rude shock. They were told that money once paid would not be returned under any circumstances.
-
"How could we ever dream of a situation like this and ask about the cancellation policy?"
asked the couple who eventually had to hire a lawyer to fight their case. They did get back their money as all the term pertaining to cancellation in the contract was unfair and the couple was not even informed of it.
-
We face such situations in India too, though the reason of cancellation or postponement is usually due to death of some relatives. But the attitude of the hall owners is no different. Here is a typical case.
