ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.—A national event venue chain that abruptly filed for bankruptcy is leaving hundreds of couples without a place to tie the knot. Faith Erdman and her fiancée were supposed to get married at Noah’s this summer.
“I actually found out through my photographer, I didn't even find out through anyone I was contacting with,” Erdman said.
Noah’s closed dozens of locations across the county, taking couples’ deposit money with them. Erdman said she and her fiancée are now out a couple thousand dollars.
“It's really, it puts a damper on everything,” she said. “I know that my fiancée and I, we both are in the restaurant industry and we work our butts off to be able to make the money that we do and we really stuck our leg out to try and book this venue and it really changed the whole dynamic of our wedding planning.”
The couple said they’re opting for a courthouse wedding now instead of a traditional wedding ceremony.
“We don't even want to go through the stress of having a wedding now,” Erdman said.
Erdman said she wants the company to know what they did to couple’s everywhere.
“I really want them to understand the damage that they did, not just emotionally, but budget wise,” she said.
