A wedding fair that was supposed to go ahead in Auckland has been delayed for more than a year and vendors who paid to be part of it are demanding refunds. Photo / NZMEThe organiser of an under-fire Auckland wedding fair delayed for more than a year says the event will definitely go ahead in May and new dates have been "locked in". The Hitch'd Wedding Fair was originally set down for March 2020 in Kumeu but was postponed after New Zealand went into level 4 lockdown in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Since then, several new dates have been promised to vendors by fair owner Jade Stack, but nothing has eventuated. The fair has been running since 2018 and boasts a collection of "80 to 90" boutique wedding vendors including photographers, designers, jewellers, caterers, decor providers, florists, make-up artists, hair stylists and planners.
