That can't just steal your money!!! Sue them.

Just get married at the courthouse. It’s FREE

[@SnappySnapfire]

No it's not.

[@UHNWI777]

@@SnappySnapfire It certainly doesn’t require a $10,000 deposit. Filing papers for a few hundred $ vs. paying for a venue that steals your $10K deposit, that’s nearly FREE

[@TheEnd-eg6wq]

Yes, then you can also get an anullment.

Those owners are icky. Sue the effff out of them !

Event cancellation insurance has been available for decades. Time for the wedding industry to step in and form an association to assure this will not happen again. Maybe people getting married should consider a professional wedding planner.

That's why you don't use those places.

maybe someone should start a go=fund-me

[@user-uv8qn3qw4e]

Hopefully they can get some help. Where are the owners? Took the money and ran?

[@user-dt6cx9gy9m]
