Not exactly like the picture of kindness.
A wedding photography company refused to return a Colorado man after his fiance died in a tragic car accident – then mocked him online, according to reports.
Citing his rare and heartbreaking situation, Justin Montney, from Colorado Springs, asked the Copper Stallion Media company to return the $ 1,800 deposit after his 22-year-old bride, Alexis Wyatt, was killed on February 4, according to KRDO-TV.
“They said they would expand my services to my next marriage, which is a very insensitive thing to convey to me,” he told the station. “They should be able to [refund it] because they don’t provide any service. “
But the Texas-based photography company rejected his request, citing a “legally binding contract” signed in November.
As word of rejection spread, people left dozens of negative reviews on the company’s social media pages, along with the wedding site TheKnot.com, according to Fox 6 Now.
The photography company responded immediately by creating a website, JustinMontneyWedding.com, to “build our case” against it.
It was said that Montney took the story to the “failed KRDO news station” for a segment in which he “admitted the contract was non-refundable.”
“Life is the great Justin,” the website reads.
The message appeared to be removed from the site Wednesday.
“We answered and expressed our sympathy and explained to him that all our marriage contracts are non-refundable,” Copper Stallion Media also said on its website.
“He kept sending us emails to get a refund and we continued to confirm that the contract was non-refundable. We have finally stopped responding since the issue was debated. “
The company could not be contacted for comment on Wednesday.
