What can we say, the 5* Reviews just keep coming. We are eternally grateful to our couples for taking the time to write them.
Especially, Grammy award nominated, musicians who we know are incredibly busy doing what they do best.
Thank you to Andrea Rocha and Pete Rycroft aka Lost Boy Pete

Short legs were amazing from start to finish. We had a zoom call with Trish a few weeks before the wedding and introduced her to Rico, we talked her through a rough plan of the day and she suggested timings that fit perfectly with our schedule. Rico LOVEEEED her immediately, and we were kept up to d...

The very reason these are the only awards I enter .
South West Wedding Awards 2023 here we come

We always get asked what makes us different from the other Wedding Awards that are around?

Here are a few facts about the South West Wedding Awards.

We held our first awards night in 2008, which makes us one of, if not the oldest, UK Wedding Industry awards.

We always have been and always will be free to enter!

We don’t want you to pay to advertise with us after the awards night.

We were originally called the Westcountry Wedding Awards and only covered Devon and Cornwall.

In 2015 we became the South West Wedding Awards and 2016 we mixed up the Gala finals evening to include an after Party!

In 2017 we expanded to encompass companies from the entire geographical South West of England.

We are not a popularity competition, we verify votes and we have a scoring system that means a company with 10 votes stands as much chance of winning as one with 50.

Unlike some other awards we only take votes from your couples after the wedding date, not before, because plans change, weddings sometimes don’t go ahead.
We have found some companies provide a great service in the run up to a wedding and fail to deliver the standard on the day.
We feel this way we know the service has been provided and the reviews give a full and honest picture of the entire service not just a snapshot of a promise.

All the admin is handled by one person who coordinates the Gala Finals as well.

We use independent judges and category experts to ensure fairness across all categories.

We don’t penalise companies who cannot attend the Gala Finals by taking away their awards, if you win, you win.

We have amazing long standing sponsors

AVLX
Dream Weddings Magazine
Fuel
Shot in the Dark - Disco & P.A. Hire
Stylus Engravers

Without them, our category sponsors and our attendees there would be no Gala Finals night and we thank each and every person who supports us.

We hope that covers a lot of questions that get asked and we can’t wait to see you all in two weeks time!

Just home after my 4th wedding of the week. Look at these 4 dogs, they make everything worthwhile. I love what I do and I love all the couples I meet. They trust me to look after their most precious fur babies. It’s such an honour 🐾❤️

16/09/2023

Dog Chaperones now have their, very, own category in the South West Wedding Awards 🐾🐾🐾

As voting draws towards its close we can confirm there will be brand new categories in the finals this year!!!

Confirmed so far we have

🩷 Contemporary Wedding Photography - all photographers will have had an email about this, if you have not responded to to please make sure you do before voting closes!!

We are waiting for voting to close to confirm the following

🩷 Wedding Celebrant

🩷 Dog Chaperone

🩷 Wedding Planner

🩷 Wedding Videography and Photography

However as times change and we gain categories we also lose them as well.

Potentially on their way out are

🩵 Wedding Accessories

🩵 Wedding Stationary

Should we lose these two categories we will create a category called Essential Wedding Extras, this will encompass stationery, bridal accessories, cake toppers, mother of the brides outfits, favours and all manner of things that are all essential for the wedding day. We will retain the Something Different category as well for less traditional parts of the wedding.

Should this happen an email will be sent out to all companies that this will effect.

We have always endeavoured to have categories to include all possible company types and we hope that everyone will understand that we make these changes to ensure the viability of categories (a minimum of 3 finalists is always required for a category) and to keep the awards as inclusive and welcoming as they always have been.

Thank you and of course we welcome any questions via email about the changes.

Love from SWWA HQ
