Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's former wedding planners have slammed the lawsuit against them as "frivolous".
Nelson Peltz, 80, launched a legal bid against the owners of Plan Design Events, Nicole Braghin and Arianna Grijalba, after they failed to return his huge deposit for his daughter's big day last year. Nicola, 28, tied the knot with Brooklyn, 23, at her family's Miami estate last April in a lavish event spanning across three days.
Since then, the billionaire investor has taken legal action against the two wedding planners after failing to return his $159,000 (£132,000) deposit. The lawyer representing Plan Design Events has slammed the lawsuit as “frivolous”.
The Peltz family went through three different wedding planners in the lead up to Nicola and Brooklyn's big day after their initial planner, Preston Bailey – who planned Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner’s wedding - stepped down. Plan Design Events were the second company hired for the job just six weeks before the wedding day and were then fired after just nine days working for the family.
The women claim they worked 17-hour days on the three-day $3.5 million (£2.9 million) nuptials, which was attended by 500 guests, including Brooklyn’s parents Victoria and David Beckham, as well as Gordon Ramsay and Serena and Venus Williams, reports the Mirror.
Plan Design Events' lawyer David Rosemberg told the Mail On Sunday: "My clients have impeccable reputations within the event-planning industry and among their high-end clientele worldwide. They operate their business with the utmost integrity and discretion.
"The lawsuit that was filed by Nelson Peltz is frivolous and unimpressive. Relevant and complete emails and text messages that address the misleading statements
