If you were left at the altar would you expect the other person to pay for half of the wedding if they hadn't already?

Question

And vice versa. Watching Sweet Home Alabama and it came to mind 😂 if someone left me at the altar I wouldn't expect them to if they hadn't already.

Accepted Answer

I would expect them to cover all the expenses. Consider it as a inconvenience fee.

Answer

Uh yes. They can pay for the whole thing.

And I love that movie. I'm from Alabama and I still live here so it makes me happy 😂 (even though it was filmed in GA 🙄)

Answer

It would be nice if they paid for the whole thing since they're the one who walked out.

Answer

Absolutely they would have to cover half. Also I love that movie. "Why would you want to marry me anyhow?" "So I can kiss you anytime I want." 😭😍

Answer

I mean, I'm not planning on getting married. But if for some reason I do, I certainly wouldn't have a huge in your face put me in debt type wedding. It would probably be a courthouse wedding.

But for the hypothetical: hell yeah I would

Answer

Um yeAH? You both planned it and you're both responsible for it. No one actually gets a wedding? So no one person can be held responsible for it all.
If you were meant to be a part of it, but ended up not coming, you pay for what you started, just like the other so many other sales in the world.

Answer

Uh hell yes. I had a Co worker who's boyfriend left her at the altar and he didn't pay for shit! She still has all the decorations and her dress & bridesmaid dresses in storage 💔 
& I love that movie!

Answer

Ideally, they would pay for all or at least half. But, realistically you can't make them pay you for it unless you had a contract outlining this prior or you take them to court.

Answer

******supposed to say would if they hadn't already*******

Answer

Well, most of it would probably already be paid for, so I'd probably have a "good riddance" party. I'd try to save/resell some of the stuff. If possible, I'd take them to court to pay back everything else.
