On January 9, we eagerly announced the 2012 winners of WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards™. The prestigious annual awards program recognizes the best local wedding vendors from the WeddingWire Network who demonstrate excellence in quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism within the wedding industry. It was with great pleasure that we congratulated the winners for their continued professionalism and commitment to enriching the wedding planning experience for engaged couples.

 “WeddingWire has been an invaluable tool in helping to grow my business. Engaged couples need to feel confident in their choice of vendors and the reviews on WeddingWire provide just that. The Bride’s Choice Award is a recognition that a vendor has performed well on a consistent basis throughout the year and that recognition benefits both the vendor and the couple. The couples I meet tell me how impressed they are with my work and reviews. What could be better than that?”Deborah Lauren, City Sweets & Confections, New York, NY |

 “We’re very honored and excited to have received WeddingWire’s Bride’s Choice Award for the 3rd year in a row! We’ve found that engaged couples want to read reviews from past clients, especially because, a lot of a wedding planner’s offerings are intangible – peace of mind, attention to detail, organization and stress reduction! By providing prospective clients with access to read what our previous clients have said about their experience working with us is HUGE!”Mark Kingsdorf, The Queen of Hearts Wedding Consultants, Philadelphia, PA |

While many industry awards are selected by the organization, the WeddingWire Bride’s Choice Awards™ are awarded solely based on the reviews from over 1.2 million newlyweds. The awards are determined by a combination of four factors: overall rating, total number of reviews, review performance from 2011, and consistency of reviews from year to year. This year’s recipients represent the top 5% of the WeddingWire local vendor community, comprised of over 200,000 wedding professionals throughout the United States and Canada. Professionals from across 20 service categories, from wedding venues to wedding photographers, are recognized based on their overall achievements throughout the previous year.
