Channel 11 has been in touch with the attorney general over in Michigan.
They’ve gotten a handful of complaints from these brides and we now know they’re coming from five different states.
They include weddings in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Michigan.
The brides say Eden Regula, owner of Michigan-based Sip of Eden Mobile Bartending, double, triple and quadruple-booked events in different states on the same day.
Regula began no-showing at events, giving brides different excuses.
She then announced last week she sold her business.
The AG’s office said they’ve gotten four similar complaints so far and are evaluating them for a potential investigation.
Regula deactivated her phone and is not responding to Channel 11 or anyone else.
The new owner is promising to honor contracts but is not answering questions about refunds.
