Of course you can. Becoming engaged is a form of oral contract -- it is an agreement to show up and get married. When two people become engaged, a great deal of money is put into the planning of the wedding. When one person breaches that contract, he/she is liable for the damages left to the other parties.

While it's okay to call off your wedding, it's not okay to walk away without consequence. Your ex kept up his/her end of the deal -- he/she was willing to show up and marry you, therefore your ex should not have to contribute to the financial burden of loss. Keep in mind that this is a very emotional type of case and chances are your ex is going to "go for the jugular". You should hire a really good lawyer if you're in a position to do so.

You simply need to call a lawyer in your state. Most first consultations are free.

Think of it like this: Is it cheaper and less damaging taking a chance to have to pay some fees legally for calling off the wedding, rather than going through a divorce, dividing assets, and possibly paying child support for one or more children for the next 18 - 20+ years of your life?

How do you ask a client to reimburse you for traveling expenses for planning a wedding out of town?

You should not have to ask a client to reimburse you for traveling expenses since you planned the wedding out of town and if you are a wedding planner then send the client a bill and if the bill is not paid within a month send another one. If the last bill sent is not paid then put it into a Collection Agencies hands. If you are not a wedding planner and did this on the side you can do the same thing, but go to small debts court.
