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,
