Can the wedding deposit be refunded?

First of all, you can look at the contract signed at that time. After paying the deposit, both parties will sign the contract. If the contract stipulates that the deposit can be refunded, then it can be refunded at this time. If the deposit is to be refunded, it should be executed in accordance with the signed content. If there is no written contract, that is, a deposit is paid, then the liability will be determined according to the loss. Because after the newcomers reach a cooperation with the hotel, the hotel may start to prepare related supplies or push off the booking needs of other newcomers. The hotel needs to compensate for this part of the loss, which is generally repaid with a deposit, so it will not be refunded. If you don't sign the contract, you can negotiate with the hotel to refund the deposit. Besides, you should see the reason for canceling the wedding reception. If the newcomer asks for cancellation himself, this situation is unlikely to be refunded. On the contrary, if the wedding banquet is cancelled because of the hotel itself, then this situation should be returned.
