The court ruling followed a NSW Fair Trading case triggered by 68 complaints about undelivered or poor-quality services.

Overview

  • Emily Jayne Andres was found responsible for 15 breaches of consumer law after a pattern of non-delivery across two years.
  • The penalties comprise a $48,250 fine plus $51,760 in compensation to affected couples.
  • Complaints spanned March 2023 to February 2025, with some newlyweds left up to $5,000 out of pocket.
