Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 13 Oct, 14:32 · Archive

Mark and Lorraine Norwood's wedding caterer cancelled the day before their ceremony when the firm went into liquidation.

Mark and Lorraine Norwood from Norton faced losing their wedding catering when their original caterer, Baba Ganoush, went into liquidation. They received notification via text message from their venue at 7am on 2 October, the day before their wedding on 3 October. Baba Ganoush's owner, Ashley Hyde, had notified them by email at 23:30 the previous evening.

Lorraine posted about the situation on social media seeking help and received several offers and recommendations. Dom from Dom's Kitchen messaged her directly and agreed to take over the catering with less than 24 hours' notice. Lorraine described him as 'fantastic' for stepping in.

Lorraine said Dom had subsequently told her that other brides had contacted him in tears after being let down by the same caterers. She said the couple were 'out of pocket by thousands' but considered themselves 'very lucky' to have had their wedding as planned.
