The wedding industry in London and the surrounding South East region gathered at 900-year-old Farnham Castle in Surrey to find out who had won the Regional Awards in The Wedding Industry Awards 2015. Two hundred and fifty glamorous industry professionals packed out The Great Hall to celebrate their success.
Guests arrived to a reception courtesy of Champagne Lanson’s White Label and TWIA sponsor Galloping Gourmet provided sustenance that appealed to all the senses with beautifully- styled food stations and mouthwatering canapés.
Applause and cheers rang out as Damian Bailey, awards founder, took to the stage to begin the evening’s awards presentation. Over the course of an hour, 25 wedding businesses were named as the best suppliers that brides and grooms in London and the South East could wish to work with. Categories included everything from venues to hairstylists, florists to photographers and a plethora of entertainment acts.
Voted for by their own clients from the past 12 months, entrants to The Wedding Industry Awards needed to exceed an average voter score and impress the judging panel in order to be regionally shortlisted. The regional winners were then scrutinised by the judges who examined everything from a business’ branding through to their customer service while taking into account the comments of their clients.
The regional winners from London and South East will now take part in the national finals, the winners of which will be announced on January 15, 2015 at a glamorous awards party in London. If the excitement at Farnham Castle is anything to go by, it will be a night of extraordinary celebration.
Bride magazine, official media partner to The Wedding Industry Awards, will publish a special magazine called All You Need, with full coverage of the awards and its winners. It will be distributed to thousands of brides-to-be at wedding events across the country in 2015.
