Last night (20^th February 2012) the glitterati of the Irish wedding industry descended on the Crowne Plaza in Dublin for the 3rd annual WeddingsOnline.ie Awards.

Over 17,000 brides and grooms nationwide voted for their Top 100 Wedding Suppliers and Top 50 Venues, who were then judged by an expert panel based on quality of work and a real wedding experience.

Three hundred people attended the gala dinner and awards ceremony.

“The WeddingsOnline.ie Annual Awards have been a huge success in recognising the hard work, dedication and quality of service that is provided by the many wedding suppliers throughout the Irish Wedding Industry, including bridal shops, photographers, musicians and venues.”
