<prompt> Human: Hi,I just married my lovely wife. I thought all the wedding related stuff was over. Then I get a message from the caterers saying the check from the wedding planner bounced. This was not my check... I already paid the wedding planner for the services. Catering was on the agreed on services at 18k the caterers recieved 2k but not the other 16k.When I rang her she said that her purse had been stolen at the wedding and someone had stolen her identity. The caterer seems to think that she is not telling the truth. He filed a theft report with the police. I originally signed the agreement with the catering. What should I do?Tl:Dr; middle man lady has not paid for service I signed for.  <response>: in that case youre the one legally held responsible for paying the caterers. pay them and cancel your payment to the wedding planner or sue the planner to recover your money.
