Today, I had to cancel my wedding. On top of being upset about the break up, I was informed I owed a $900 cancellation fee for not using the venue. Single and broke. FML

If it wasn't meant to be it wasn't meant to be. ..$900 seems like a fair price instead of putting up with an unhappy marriage/divorce, which seems like where this marriage would have gone.

I'm a she, and I really don't plan on talking to him so I'm just going to pay it myself.

So sorry OP! He obviously is a jackass, and this is better than getting married to him then having to get a divorce. =|

I don't think it matters, but enjoy the single life. Instead of looking for "the one" you can let someone be "a(n) one"

There was a realization that getting married was a great sounding idea, but when it came down to it... It wasn't a good idea anymore and he doesn't need to be in a relationship at all.

Send him the bill with a letter asking him to pay half. It was going to be his wedding too! You don't deserve to pay it all yourself! Not fair.

Make the person who dumped you pay it. Take them to small claims court. They should have to pay it since they dumped you UNLESS you did something stupid to deserve it

At least you didnt have to pay for the entire wedding then having to go through an expensive divorce. $900 is a lot but not as much as you would've had to pay. You should still send him half the bill too.

What? He is not gonna pay the fee? He left her, and she clearly said single and broke. But if it were me, I'd make him pay!

Ouch. That sucks OP. At least it's cheaper than a divorce though and not just in terms of money but trauma as well.

This is the first time I've seen a OP actually talk to people commenting on FML. Well at least we get some questions answered to clarify the situation.

IA, you send the douche-bag half the bill! i'm so sorry to hear about the split OP, but you don't deserve to be paying the whole thing, especially as of how the split came about. that jacka$$ should pay it all imo.

"And here, at comment block number two, we have an example of an ITG, or Internet Tough Guy. They are easy to spot as they say cruel things that they would never say to one's face in order to appear cool or, as the name implies, tough. Typically, however, they only end up making fools of themselves as they are very easy to bait."

#24 - That's less fun, and there is a difference between a troll and an internet tough guy. The art of trolling is a lot more complex than just saying something mean.

Hey "TheFunnyzach", you think,this is funny? A person who ended her relationship before going to the altar and paying a cancelation fee? Do you feed on the suffering of people?
You are an asshole, seriously. Never show your face here again, ass-wipe

I had a comment moderated for an "insult" and I didn't even curse! The same thing better happen here! Or they'll just erase the comment thread because I said this. Let's see.

It's both depending on whether you deserve it or not. FML is a website where you post the messed up things that happen in your life that are worth hearing about, it can be be any type of genre. Whether an individual responds appropriately to the situation determines what kind of response they will get from other people

What are the repercussions for not paying the cancellation fee? I think that $900 is awfully steep.

He's also allowed to keep it off. Your comment isn't really needed; it is not a part of the thread or in topic. But as for repercussions I'm thinking that they'll send it to collections eventually.

The venue can sue her, and if they win, the judge can put against her so that if she files taxes they can take them to satisfy the debt

If they do sue wouldn't they have to prove damages or such? I think that 900 is wishful thinking.

No, it is in the contract that 75% is to be paid if the cancellation is 0-31 days from the time of the event. I would be taken to court.

You could probably get your ex to pay for half of the cancellation fee. I hope everything else works out for you!
