Earlier this month Classic Party Rentals in Abbotsford suddently closed down, leaving a bunch of customers who had already paid deposits and have upcoming weddings and other events wondering what to do.

Cassendra Boyer, who has plans to get married this summer, received an email from the company Friday morning saying bankruptcy trustees have been appointed to deal with creditors and dispose of assets.

She’s not sure she’ll be able to get her deposit back and says while she’s been able to find an alternate rental place, this is going to sting financially.

“It’s always tight being a newlywed, and your budget is always tight. And $800 is actually, even though it’s not a huge amount of money, it is a big hit. I found another business who has saved me and I’m meeting with her so hopefully she will be able to provide everything.”

Better business bureau senior communications advisor Evan Kelly says Classic Party Rentals had BBB membership until last year and had never had a complaint.
