Crazy story: videographer denies refund after bride to be dies in an accident

Then allegedly, the videographer....commits suicide?

The video company posted this after the groom went to the media to put pressure on the company for denying him a refund.

The whole point of a non-refundable deposit is that the company would be declining other contracts in order to hold the day.

While it would be a kind gesture to refund the deposit, the company still has bills and people to pay.

The fact that they cancelled because the bride died is sad, but getting a twitter mob to go after the company while you're supposedly mourning seems like an odd choice.

This is not some huge corporation. If the company had cancelled because someone died, you can bet wedding party would be screaming bloody murder over their "special day" being ruined.

R3 - bullshit. There's probably a force majeure clause - or there should have been.

The person who killed herself did it 2 years ago.

If you want to be a total dick about things, fine - but don't expect to not receive some backlash over your greed. They could have booked something else.

A 'contract is a contract' is a stupid person's understanding of the law.

by Anonymousreply 9May 25, 2020 6:42 PM

Whether they could or couldn't rebooks is irrelevant. They had to forego booking on that date - there was an opportunity cost for them to hold the day.

The non-refundable deposit is like an insurance policy. You cannot call State Farm and say, "hey, I didn't make any claims, so can I have a refund of my premium for last year?"

Weddings dates for photographers (or at least decent ones) are booked upwards of a year in advance, so the date of her death is mostly irrelevant. "Montney told us he understands they signed a contract saying the payment was non-refundable, but he believes -- since these circumstances were beyond his control -- the company should honor his request."

It would be so much worse if the company made case by case exceptions. By definition, cancellation of a wedding would most likely have a terrible story behind it. As a business, you don't want to be making qualitative calls about tragedy olympics. What if they cancelled the wedding because their 5 year old child was in the hospital - would that be a good enough reason? What about if the father of the bride died of a heart attack?

Look, I'm not saying that it wouldn't be a nice gesture to refund the deposit. But, there is a reason why deposits of this kind are non-refundable. The company is not Walmart or Amazon and would not survive if they simply ate the cost every time someone had a story to tell.

As for r9's hysteria - no one ever said "a contract is a contract" and, if there were a force majsure clause, it certainly would have been raised - sort of the whole point of small claims court, rather than using a twitter mob.

R10, the videographer offered to shoot the groom's "next" wedding. If someone cancelled or postponed from illness or any other reason the videographer would also have offered to shoot on the new date.

But because the bride died, the main attraction in the affair, there would be no rescheduling of the event. The company should have refunded the deposit out of compassion and kindness. Now they are going out of business. Horrible customer service. Death of the bride does not compare to a groom caught cheating, a common cause for cancellations.

I would say the groom kind of looks like openly gay singer Mika. I do love the shoutout to closeted married man with a baby named Chanel DL favorite Cameron Fontana at R25 though.

As for this particular beef, both sides erred. The videographer was not required to give the refund, but considering how this whole thing has played out, they should have given Justin back something. How often do brides/grooms die before the wedding date? It's not like this happens every day. Plus, the website and Youtube channel "exposing" Justin are totally batshit.

This company will end up losing more than the $1800 deposit they could have refunded him over their treatment of this guy. In addition to their business shutting down, they will lose a defamation case brought by Justin against them in court. He's entitled to make a complaint about their business practices in the media, so they have no "defamation" case against him there. The business may not have to give him the refund, but they aren't allowed to defame his character for sharing a business review and making their dispute public either.

While it would have been a nice gesture, we disagree that they "should" have refunded it.

You do not want to get into the position of judging the tragedy Olympics, as I said. Weddings get cancelled for a variety of reasons, many more than your skewed vision that it's always the groom's fault. The photographer seems to be an idiot and was never going to win this in the court of public opinion. He only made his case worse by coming across like a callous nutbag. However, once the twitter mob came after him, his business was already doomed, so lashing out probably didn't hurt his cause by that point.

According to sites like Glassdoor and Payscale, wedding photographers only make around $50K/year. They are small businesses that cannot afford to have lenient refund, return, or cancellation policies.

The groom was pretty fast to play the "dead fiancee" card to rally the outrage mob and shut this guy down. Good luck with getting your money back now although shuttering the business probably has its own attractions for him. If the objective was to recoup some of his money, his strategy was flawed and had a somewhat predictable outcome.

A small business -- in the age of Yelp and Google Reviews -- can hardly afford such bad publicity from refusing at least a partial refund to a customer with a now-dead fiancee, which as others have said, is an extremely rare occurrence. It's just bad business and a bad image. Videographer probably ended up losing way more than the disputed $1,800 this way.

An exception when the bride or groom has dropped dead before the wedding day is a pretty simple, clearcut exception to make. How often does an engaged couple have a tragedy that prevents or postpones the wedding, anyway? It's not likely that the video company was getting these refund requests all the time.

Legally, sure, the company had the right to keep the deposit, but doing so was a pennywise, pound foolish decision. Of course, if that FB post that r1 posted is for real, somebody at the company was completely unhinged.

You're not wrong there that small companies can't afford that either.

Didn't we discuss a situation with an unhinged bride recently who went on a rampage about the venue and got twitter to go crazy on them...until the venue posted a (legally recorded) audio recording of their interaction to prove she was a raving bitch? She had to delete her accounts and run into hiding. Until then, people were posting false reviews and trashing the venue.

The photographer probably should have offered to refund half - that is the BEST he was ever going to get under these circumstances.

[quote]An exception when the bride or groom has dropped dead before the wedding day is a pretty simple, clearcut exception to make.

As for "death" being a clear cut line - if it's such a clear cut line, then it should be added to the exceptions or exclusions to which both parties agree upon entering the agreement and paying the "non-refundable" deposit, not unilaterally demanded after the fact.

Frankly, even with death, the line would become hazy. Let's face it, the level of outrage would have been as big under a dozen other circumstances. I mean two words: Terry Schiavo. What if the bride or groom were not dead, but merely in a coma or persistently vegetative state? What if one of them were "missing" and it's not clear whether it's a runaway bride or something more sinister?

Just how many times in a career do you think one wedding videographer is going to have to deal with a client who dies, becomes a vegetative, or mysteriously disappears before the wedding?

In this case, the bride-to-be was killed in a crash, nothing ambiguous about it, and the video company should have had the common sense and decency to just refund the deposit and extend their condolences to the groom. The good publicity they'd have gained and bad publicity they'd have avoided would have been well worth the $1800. And they didn't need to worry about a setting a bad precedent because ffs, a Terry Schiavo- or dead/runaway-bride-to-be isn't going to walk through their door every day. Most couples who get engaged and make it as far as putting down deposits on the wedding services are going to end up get married as planned.

With any luck, never, as of course, that isn't remotely the point. But, your lack of basic rhetorical discourse is oddly myopic or naive, so let me break it down for you.

My point that any fool with the basic reading comprehension skills could ascertain is that agreements cannot take into consideration all the possible contingencies which may arise. Saying that "death" is a clear line is obviously fatuous.

As I've conceded numerous times, the photographer was never going to win this battle and was a fool to try to defend himself.

What you call "compassion" is a nebulous get-out-of-jail free card to get the deposit refunded. Personally, in this day and age, I would have refunded his money simply because there's no way anyone would survive the onslaught of people like you who scream about compassion. If it were a huge corporation like Hyatt or Marriott refunding the deposit on a banquet room, it's no big deal. But, $1800 on an average annual income of $50K for wedding photographers (per Glassdoor and Payscale) is a lot of money and refunding is a lot harder, especially now since all of his booking have been postponed.

The photographer seems like a piece of work. But, whether he's a great humanitarian or a jackass only makes a difference when you're counting on making an emotional appeal to get your way, not when discussing the merits of an underlying proposition.

Feel free to screech back at me, as I know you will.

The right thing for a small business' reputation is to give a refund when someone dies. If you're in the business of doing special occasion photography, bad word of mouth is much worse than the opportunity cost of one booking. This is common sense. The reason you don't hear about cases like this more often is that busineses refund people when there's a death.

by Anonymousreply 80May 26, 2020 12:17 AM

The guy defrauds his photographers as well as his clients. The Reddit upthread has at least two ex-employees saying they never received payment for their work.

The 50K figure is probably not what what a company owner makes, but the videographers/photographers he hires. He claims multiple physical locations across states, but there's no evidence there are any. When they do get paid it's always by snail mail in envelopes with no return address and a postage stamp affixed instead of the usual business metered mail. He's ghosted clients after disputes before services were rendered, but sent the unwitting photographer to the wedding where the bride and groom were surprised.

This guy is a con who can't run a business to save his life and is likely shooting or snorting client deposits. It wouldn't surprise me if the booker who killed herself was stressed out by the toxic insane work environment and boss. I'd even go further speculating that she was aware of criminal activity in which she could have been implicated.

He wants clients and employees to hold up their end of agreements, but he can pick and choose which obligations to fulfill or ignore. All that being said, it surprises me that couples don't do research before writing checks. A simple search for Copper Stallion would have turned all of this up. The complaints and all of his legal woes were out there to see before the contract was signed.

And who the fuck planning a wedding chooses a video service with a name that sounds like they also shoots porn on the side?

Did the caterers supply food to the wake based on payment they received already?

R88 (and your other 10 or so posts here) - you seem obsessed with posting your 'only-funny-to-you' sophomoric quips here. Why the obsession?

Husbands a douche. The bride escaped a fate worse than death.

I asked a photographer friend about this. He shot weddings at the beginning of his career before moving into advertising.

He said, "Of course I'd refund the deposit, it's the right thing to do." He speculated about keeping a percentage but then said he'd give it all back.

I agree, it's the right thing to do.

[quote] the videographer offered to shoot the groom's "next" wedding

If the videographer isn't careful, he's going to get shot. He's a scam artist who has been scamming people in several states for over 5 years. He deserves to get his dick cut off

He's going to do this to the wrong person. I can't wait

Why is the family haggling over this when they should be grieving their precious baby girl bride?

What would ALEXIS want??

If the company didn't have a shitty reputation, I would defend them.

This contract could not be fulfilled -- there's a legal theory called impossibility:

In contract law, impossibility is an excuse for the nonperformance of duties under a contract, based on a change in circumstances, the nonoccurrence of which was an underlying assumption of the contract, that makes performance of the contract literally impossible.

No bride = no wedding, thus nothing to videotape.

Uhh... your fiancee dies horribly and you become obsessed with getting a 1,800.00 deposit back? Who the fuck in that situation would even be thinking about that money?

Well, it was three months ago and apparently the video guy was the only one that wouldn't refund...
