On a different note, a mother is facing a distressing situation after a wedding venue in the United States refused to refund an $18,000 deposit following the untimely death of her son just before his scheduled wedding. Chris Perry and his fiancée had booked The Cotton Room for their upcoming nuptials, but Chris tragically passed away before the event. Despite efforts to secure a refund, the venue has stood firm on its non-refundable deposit policy.
The grieving mother expressed her frustration at the venue’s refusal to reconsider, highlighting the challenges she has faced in seeking a resolution. The venue’s executive director acknowledged the family’s loss and offered condolences while upholding the deposit policy. The situation has garnered attention and raised questions about the handling of such sensitive matters in the wedding industry.
