Did Australian Chinese couples get 13000 Australian dollars when they got married?

Chinese and Australian couple Ben Pei and Wendy Lan held a wedding reception in a Melbourne hotel in October110, which cost 26,000 Australian dollars, but the food and drinks provided by the hotel were "hard to swallow". The couple took a hotel to court and were awarded 1.3 million Australian dollars.

It is understood that the two were very satisfied when they tried the dishes before the wedding reception, but the table on the day of the wedding reception was "a disaster". Pei told reporters: "the guests can't eat at all, but it tastes so bad, which is completely different from when we tried the dishes." We sat at the table and saw that everyone showed disgusting expressions, which was simply embarrassing. "

According to Pei, every dish is cooked casually and put on a very large and shallow plate, which is not enough to eat at all, and the agreement between the two people and the hotel is that each guest will put the plate separately. He said no one could eat it, and then some guests went to McDonald's because they were hungry. Not only are the dishes at the formal wedding banquet different from those at the trial, some dishes are not even cooked, and the guests don't even have tableware. When he complained to the hotel, the latter actually threw the remaining dishes that should have been served together on the table at one time.

In Pei Shuo, many guests attending the wedding banquet came from abroad. Because there was nothing to eat, many people went home early after their speeches. They and their wives went to the table at the wedding reception to apologize to the guests, and their parents also asked the guests to apologize one by one.

They then took a hotel to court, and the Victorian Court of Civil Administrative Arbitration (VCAT) awarded a hotel compensation of 12958.5 Australian dollars. Pei was happy to win the case, but said that the compensation was not enough to compensate for his loss, especially since the two men also paid thousands of Australian dollars in legal fees.

It is reported that a hotel has been closed since 65438 on February 22nd last year.
