Has anyone heard of this website? Apparently its a place where you can submit what you are looking for and the people who run the website will help match you with a person whose wedding was cancelled (for whatever reason I'm assuming) and they are looking to recoup some of the costs/avoid paying cancellations. Couples who have decided not to marry/use their reservations can also submit their wedding to "sell".

Forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I'm curious to know what you ladies think.

    I think it's a pretty good idea. I hope I don't ever have to sell anything on there, but it's that people can at least get some of the money back.

    I hadn't heard of it but I think it is a good idea.  I always wondered if people who paid for venues and had to cancel were ever able to "resell" their date and get some money back. I think at our venue you could get your deposit back if the date was rebooked by someone els.

    I've seen a few brides on my local board post about their date at a certain venue being up for grabs for a discounted rate.  I think it's a nice option to have!

    Hmmm I've submitted information for mine to just see what comes up, if anything. I'll keep you guys updated if I go anywhere with this. :)

    Many years ago, my sister cancelled a wedding 2 weeks prior to wedding date. Most of the vendors allowed her to rebook with them within a year for little or no loss of deposits. Luckily, my parents had a friend who's daughter got pregnant and wanted to do a quick wedding before the baby came, so she basically took over all my sister's vendors for her upcoming wedding. My parents were able to reduce their losses and the friend got a much cheaper wedding. But, not everyone will conveniently know someone planning a quick wedding, so I think that site is a good idea.

    Yeah, I'm sure that the more flexiable with your date and location will cause faster results. Of course, I bet being closer to the date will mean higher chances of results as well!
