The 14th annual North West Wedding Awards, the region’s most prestigious event recognising excellence in the wedding industry, took place on 12th June 2024. The awards ceremony brought together top wedding suppliers, venues and creatives from across the North West to celebrate their exceptional contributions to creating unforgettable wedding experiences.

Organised by County Brides, the North West Wedding Awards has become a hallmark event for the wedding industry in the region. Year after year, it honours the tireless efforts and remarkable talents of wedding professionals who go above and beyond to make dreams come true for couples.

Finalists did incredibly well this year to make it through with 15,492 votes and 2,549 individual companies nominated.

The theme for the evening was ‘Tropical’ designed by Boujee Boxes which created a backdrop of elegance and glamour at the Mercure Manchester, Piccadilly. Welcomed with a sparkling red carpet entrance and revolving champagne tower, guests had a chance to network with their peers before a gala dinner, auction, live entertainment and of course, the awards.

In addition to recognising outstanding achievements, the North West Wedding Awards demonstrated a commitment to giving back to the community. The event raised an impressive £4084 for Destination Florida Children’s Charity, a remarkable organisation dedicated to giving poorly children the holiday of a lifetime.

“We’re overwhelmed by the amount of votes we’ve had this year. It’s brilliant to see so many couples showing their support for the local venues and suppliers and getting them to the final to celebrate the 14th Annual North West Wedding Awards and honour their incredible talent and hard work” said Duane Thornborough, Director at County Brides. “It was a night filled with joy, camaraderie, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. We are equally proud to have raised over £4000 so far for Destination Florida Children’s Charity to contribute to their important mission. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all the participants, sponsors, and supporters who made this event a resounding success.”

The 14th Annual North West Wedding Awards served as a reminder of the resilience and creativity within the wedding industry, even amidst recent challenging times. By recognising and applauding the exceptional talents of wedding professionals, this event has continued to set the standard for excellence in the North West.
