To me, that's worth the money right there, knowing, without a shadow of a doubt, that he ain't the one. There's no guess work included.
What she should do is throw a big party and invite only her closest girlfriends. They can take pictures and eat the food that she already paid for. But, she shouldn't let him or anyone else, except the guests, know about it. That way she can still take him to court and get half of her money back. Curtis Court is much more sympathetic to these situations that Judge Judy. She can be so smart sometimes!!!!

i agree w/the statements by classylady. as far as the original question, i think any time is appropriate to call off a wedding. money may be lost on things like the caterer, photographer, etc. i think it's less heartache in the end, if it's called off before it actually happens. had the marriage had gone on as planned and then you go through divorce proceedings, that opens up another can of worms.
depending on how the expenses were originally paid, she should be eligible to take him to court and recoup some of the money, if he isn't willing to pay her back.
