Please help if you can...

Hi ladies, I have a good friend who has called her wedding off. The hall told her that if they do not book her date that she will have to pay half!!!
The hall is Vineyard Caterers out east, and the date is August 17, 2007 (Friday).
If you or anybody you know needs a hall please contact me through FM and I will provide more info. Thank you so much!
