Bridesmaid bagging out

She should pay you at least for the cruise costs.

Was it understood when you paid for everything that she would be reimbursing you? Is so, she should pay you back, but unfortunately, I think the chances of that happening are slim to none.

Yes, she should pay you back if it was her choice to pull her kids and herself out of the wedding. However what should happen and what will happen can be two completely different things. I don’t imagine you’ll be seeing any of that money if she ran from a $300 ticket. You could always try small claims court, but if it gets to that it’ll probably be just as well to leave it as is and cut your losses. Maybe you can invite someone else who was unable to afford to attend? I’d rather have the room used by someone than be a complete waste.

If she moved just to avoid a $300 ticket, it seems highly unlikely she will pay you back, unfortunately.

She's running from a 💲3️⃣0️⃣0️⃣⏺0️⃣0️⃣ Speeding Ticket‼️

Do you REALLY think that she’s going to reimburse you⁉️

People suck. Sorry she did this. I don't think you are seeing any of that money... I like a PP idea to see if someone else can use the fare so at least it doesn't go to waste.

I can’t imagine her paying you back if she is running from a $300 speeding ticket but I also think this story is really bizarre because she likely spent close to, I’d bit more than $300 getting her and her kids to NY from NC.

She moved to NY to avoid paying a Speeding Ticket.

She doesn’t seem very bright or mature.

All she had to do was go to 🏛.

They may have thrown it out or given her a PJC.

Now, she’s going to be a fugitive. If they eventually catch her in NY, they will send her back to NC and she’ll be in Jail.

See if she has a child care plan in place for that situation.

Over $300‼️ There may be more to this story. It costs more to up and move to NY. It definitely costs more to live in NY.

Elizabeth:

Are the🛳🎟s transferable?

Do you have another friend with Daughters that can go in her place?

It's definitely not "childish" to ask for that money back. She SHOULD reimburse you for the cabin and tickets.

However, if she is running and willing to uproot herself and her children over a $300 parking ticket, there is a slim to none chance that she will pay you back.

If the tickets are transferable, just give them to someone else who can use them, since they are paid for already! If not, cut your losses, block her number and move on! Good luck!!

When you plan and pay for something like this, you take a risk. The tickets are yours to use, and sell the clothes. Don't expect any repayment. That is how it would come out if you pursued it legally . It is not a matter of that feeling right. You just need to accept it and move on. No guest or participant owes you any share of the costs at your event. ( The test would be, could she sell those tickets to anyone? No, it is your closed affair. She is not using them, and you alone can rebook them. So they are yours. ) Stuck. People rarely write default clauses and contracts with friends or family. But you can insist til you turn blue. She is not going to give you anything. Try to dismiss it from your mind and move on .
