Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you hear.

The name of your plant is Phalaenopsis Maki Watanabe 'Blushing Bride'. Here is a good place to start with culture.

AOS | Phalaenopsis

Next try this for watering.

Skewer use for watering of orchids

The leaf wrinkling is due to lack of water to the plant. Keep in find this could be due to too much water and the roots getting rot and dying. It could also be from not enough water. I would do as psyc1210 suggested and check the roots. If they are brown and mushy then they are rotting. If they are green and firm then you are ok. Let us know what you find and post a picture if you have any.
