The award-winning team at Carringtons Catering is collaborating with other industry specialists to offer guidance on a range of subjects from venue hire to photography, through to food and floristry, designed for brides- and grooms-to-be facing cancelled wedding days due to the pandemic.
The company’s director, Helen Wynn says, “We’ve had many emotional conversations with couples, who’ve been left heartbroken and confused by the situation. They’ve been reaching out to us on an almost weekly basis finding comfort in having us as a sounding board. To open those conversations up further, we’ve set up a support network, which will include regular Q&As with a different trusted supplier each week across our social media platforms. We want couples and suppliers alike to have access to the right advice in a community-led setting, allowing direct contact with experienced professionals. We’re delighted that a number of local suppliers have already reached out in support of this campaign, which is a true testament to the resilience of the wedding industry as a whole.”
