The Wedding Journal Reader Awards are the most prestigious Awards in the industry and for venues and suppliers to be recognised as the overall winner within their category would be a huge achievement for them and really does mean so much because all of their efforts are recognised by you!

We know that you have already shown your support, but if we could just ask that once again you get behind all of your favourite wedding venues and suppliers to determine the overall winner in each category we would really appreciate it!

If you click here you can cast your vote now or alternatively, if you are on the website or social media of the venue or supplier you might see the badge below and if you click on it, it will also bring you directly to the voting pages where you can offer your support and acknowledgement of all of the hard work they do.

CASTING YOUR VOTE
