And following a number of complaints to Nottinghamshire Police from customers, a woman has now been arrested.
A police spokesperson said: “Following inquiries into this matter we arrested a 36-year-old woman on suspicion of fraud by false representation.
“She was interviewed and subsequently released on bail. Our investigation remains ongoing.”
It is still unclear whether the wedding boutique has formally gone into liquidation.
