I think we can all agree that after the year we’ve had, it’s time for a celebration. Well, in March next year, we will be doing exactly that! Our WOLawards21 Gala Dinner is where the best of the best will be presented with their awards (well, Covid-permitting). Thanks to your voting, we have narrowed down our list of finalists and today we want to share the list with you!
All the finalists below have been notified by email and this is what will happen next: Our finalists will be asked to complete an online submission document, containing samples of their work and reviews based on a real wedding experience. This will all be judged by our expert panel of independent judges who will then determine the winners. Then, on 29th March 2021, we will (hopefully) host our annual Gala Dinner and Awards Ceremony, where the winners will be announced!
This is a very exciting experience for wedding suppliers, as we recognise all the hard work they have done over the last year. It is equally exciting for couples, because this is how you can pick the best of the best. Being able to say you have award-winning suppliers on your Wedding Dream Team will give you peace of mind and it’s definitely something to brag about. So take a look at the list below, because our finalists for WOLawards21 have been announced!
