Do I need to sign a contract to get married and book a hotel?

From the perspective of civil law, as long as the two parties reach an agreement, the newcomer will pay the deposit to the hotel as required, and the hotel will issue a deposit receipt or receipt to the newcomer accordingly, which means that the two parties have signed a contract, but it is not a written contract. Generally speaking, both parties will fulfill their rights and obligations as agreed.

However, judging from the contract performance disputes I have come into contact with, there are often disputes such as the loss of the hotel caused by the temporary absence of newcomers, or the hotel arranged drinks for two groups of newcomers one day, which led to the newcomers' failure to order drinks on time. Once this happens, either the hotel can't re-conclude the contract on a good day, resulting in a great loss on that day, or the newcomer can't make an appointment with the wine, causing lifelong regret. After this kind of dispute occurs, even if the two sides go to the industrial and commercial departments, arbitration departments, consumer protection committees and other departments for administrative and civil mediation, generally no good mediation agreement will be reached, and finally they have to resort to the court. Although they may get financial comfort, they will regret it in the end.

Therefore, I suggest that when you book a hotel, you can make an agreement with the hotel on specific matters. If it's not too much trouble, you can draw up a written contract online or ask someone to sign it for confirmation, and specify the liability for breach of contract and dispute settlement clauses in the contract. If it's too much trouble, you can also list the relevant matters in your own order (such as whether to serve food in time, whether to allow the shopkeeper to add food, whether to bring your own drinks, venue layout and other details), and finally sign it by both parties in duplicate, with each party keeping one copy. Such problems arise in time and can also be used as effective evidence in civil litigation and mediation.

hope this helps
