Creative Oceanic is delighted to announce the finalists of The 4th Irish Wedding Awards 2020.
Ireland is a great destination for couples that wish to hold their wedding there due to the fantastic professionals that operate within the wedding sector who can make the wedding of our dreams come true.
Hundreds of top wedding specialists and establishments that are eligible to be recognised for their impeccable work are expected to attend the prestigious ceremony to celebrate their achievements.
The black-tie event will take place on Monday, January 20, at The Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport Hotel.
These Awards aim to reward those within the eclectic wedding industry that make one of the most special days of our lives one to remember; whether they are caterers that provide delicious reception meals, decorators that take care of the wedding venues and give them that fairy-tale sparkle or DJs and bands that add the extra thrill to the atmosphere.
The event will provide a platform to showcase meritorious professionals in the wedding industry, who can create memorable and bespoke weddings to fit every couple’s needs.
Numerous prestigious accolades will be presented to the most deserving specialists, including Wedding Venue of the Year, Caterer of the Year, Photographer of the Year, and Wedding Coordinator of the Year among other.
A Spokesperson for The Irish Wedding Awards 2020 said: “These Awards are an exclusive celebration, dedicated to those who work tirelessly to make our dream day as perfect as possible. They seek to recognise everyone in this sector that has shown excellence, commitment and have the customer satisfaction as top priority in their business.
“We would like to wish all the finalists the best of luck and we can’t wait to welcome all our guests at the event and celebrate the winners with them.”
