Hi Everyone
I'm just after some advice, we initially booked a wedding venue for February 2019 but do to unforeseen circumstances we've had to cancel the venue, I paid £3,000 deposit in June 2018 to secure the date but We never signed a contract or giving a contract in our hands.
In October 2018 we notified them we were no longer doing a wedding in February 2019 and required a full deposit. They replied " they will not give a full refund and they have lost out, as the total wedding venue was £11,500". We evening suggested at least half the deposit and they refused it.
It would be great if anyone out there can gives us some advice. Getting back the £3,000 deposit will help us a lot.
Thank you in advance,

Do you have insurance & if so, was the unforeseen circumstances covered?0

Did you ever see a copy of the contract? Its highly unusual they dont have any at all if theyre a formal event venue, even if you didnt specifically sign it sometimes there are ways they get around it.
Generally speaking though, that is very short notice for a venue, and i know in my venues contract it says that if its 4 months before the event we have to pay the full venue cost plus 75% of the expected catering costs.0
