Hi all! My fiancee and I (stupidly in retrospect) signed a contract in June to have our ceremony and reception at a local hotel on March 20, 2021. We made sure to have language in the contract along the lines of we can reschedule because of corona. A few weeks ago, we realized that things were not going to be safe enough for us to have the full reception that we had originally planned so we asked if we could reschedule. They said no. We had a zoom call with the contact person we'd been working with and she basically said that everyone was over the virus and since we're legally able to have a gathering of that size they weren't going to allow us to move our date. We've only paid the initial $2k deposit so far and we didn't want to get stuck with paying them the rest of the money for an event that most likely won't happen next spring, so we've decided to cancel. We again wrote them an email notifying them that we're canceling and also asked if there's any chance we could get a percentage of the deposit back considering everything that is going on in the world. They haven't responded yet, but I'm just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation and how has it worked out for you? Thanks!
