Huge thank you to all our brides and grooms!!!

They voted for us at Australian Bridal Industry Academy website and with a score 99.43% we came 4th in NSW. Not too bad with 108 nominees in our category.

A bit of information about ABIA.

The Annual Bridal Industry Awards are State awards held each year to determine the best wedding suppliers in NSW, VIC, QLD and WA.

These awards are determined by past brides who have been through the process of selecting their bridal suppliers and have then rated them on the quality of products, service, value and staff.

To determine the nominees and finalists, the brides were asked to give scores out of 100 for the quality of product, quality of service, value for money and attitude of the staff of those suppliers who serviced the needs of the bride before, during and after her wedding day.

 You can meet with us at Ivy Room where we will be a part of the Wedding Open Day.

Come to look at our products and other best wedding suppliers, all in one place.

Have a glass of champagne and taste the food from their celebrity chef David O’Brien. It’s gonna be fun:-)
