Wedding Photographer Won’t Refund Groom After Bride Dies in Car Crash

Justin Montney and his bride-to-be Alexis were set to get married this month, but in February tragedy struck, and Alexis lost her life in a car crash. Still grieving, Justin informed the wedding vendors and asked for refunds. All but one gave his money back - the wedding videographer. Cooper Stallion Media said that the couple had signed a non-refundable contract, and refused to get on the phone. When Justin spoke out, the videographer launched a callous attack, making a website to mock Justin. #InsideEdition

As a lawyer, I feel you're correct. Frustration of purpose is a defense to breach of contract. The bride passed away, canceling the wedding, and now there is no purpose in fulfilling the contract. If anything, the court would have deducted any necessary restitution (for materials purchased in anticipation, etc) but would have given the groom back the rest of his money. However, why go that far ? Just give the man his money back. Then to mock him ? My old aunt used to say, "the devil walks among us". I thought she meant it literally when I was a kid.

The videographer was in the right to not refund the money. He had nothing to do with the bride-to-be's death. The family was WRONG for harassing the videographer to get a non-refundable refund. The videographer was WRONG to mock the family after getting tired of being harassed by the family.

[@Bluedhalias]

Alex Geoffrey he wasn’t forced to mock anything, everyone has something called a conscious which we all use. Regardless of what happened he shouldn’t of said all those things especially when making fun of someone’s death. It’s called having morals and knowing what the right thing to do is. I get that it’s a contract but you shouldn’t have to make a whole website just because someone took it to the internet, if he didn’t want all of this to happen he could of just gave him the picture that they payed for and rightfully deserved.
