Navigating Wedding Cancellations Due to Hurricane Helene
As we all know from the past several days, Mother Nature can be unpredictable, and when Hurricane Helene made its way toward the southern coast, we had no idea where she would turn and the destruction she would cause. Many couples faced the heartbreaking reality of having to cancel or postpone their dream weddings due to the aftermath of Helene. The emotional toll is significant, but it’s important to remember that you’re not alone in this process. At SpringHaus Farm, located just 15 miles from Athens, Georgia, we are here to support you as you navigate these challenges.
Understanding the Impact of Hurricane Helene
Hurricane Helene's strong winds and heavy rain forced many venues to close their doors, leaving couples scrambling to find new locations or adjust their plans. It’s a tough situation, especially when so much effort and emotion has gone into planning a wedding. However, there are silver linings to consider during this stressful time. Most contracts have what is called a Force Majeure, which in layman's terms means a clause in a contract that essentially frees both parties from liability or obligation due to an act of God, or circumstances beyond the control of either party.
