Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Colorado

Breaking A Contract
We are getting married and have a contract with the wedding planner and have put down $1000 to secure their services. Things have not been going well and we have been doing most of the ''planning'' ourselves, we have agreed to the changes but now they want to change the price of the contract (raise the price of catering) because we have eliminated some of the things we didn't like. They say it was a package deal and now the whole package is not there. Many problems have come up and we're just going to do it ourselves. They re-wrote the contract and we both signed the old contract stating it was ''canceled'' now we don't want to sign the new contract, it does say ''NO refunds'' on the deposit. I know they have paid some deposits but all of the $1000 dollars is not spent. They are ''expecting'' us to sign the new contract. What are our options? Is the ''NO refunds'' part of the contract canceled as well? Will we get some or all of our deposit back?

Re: Breaking A Contract

I would have to read the entire contract you signed to give an opinion on whether you are entitled to any refund.

Even if the contract states that the deposit is non-refundable, you may have an argument that the contract is void.

Normally, however, you should not have to sign a new contract unless you want to.
