Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How can I get more reviews?

You can ask for reviews from your couples directly from your vendor portal by sending them a message. Alternatively, you will also find the option to copy and paste a personalised link that you can send to your couples through other digital channels such as WhatsApp. Both techniques can be combined to make sure your couples receive your request. 

For a step-by-step guide, check out our article on How to collect reviews from couples.

Why is it important to collect reviews from couples? 

Collecting reviews is essential because it not only boosts your chances of winning a 2027 Wedding Award, but fresh feedback also gives prospective couples strong reasons to choose you, helping drive your sales and revenue.

How can I improve my chances of winning?

Once you meet our minimum review count requirement, we recommend that you focus on collecting as many 5-star reviews as possible to boost your average rating! As a reminder, the wedding doesn’t need to occur in 2026 as long as the review is submitted during the eligibility time frame. Not only will this help to improve your chances of winning our next year’s awards, but collecting new reviews gives prospective clients more reason to reach out to you!

Can I merge reviews across my Storefronts to qualify?

No, you cannot merge reviews between your Storefronts on our websites. Unique content is critical to every storefront.

When will the Wedding Awards 2027 winners be announced?

Winners will be announced during the first months of 2027.

What are some benefits to being a Wedding Awards winner?

Throughout the year, our Marketing and Editorial teams will choose vendors from the pool of Premium winners to be featured in social posts, editorial articles and potential PR features. Winners also get additional visibility of their storefront through filters in the marketplace directory section and on the homepage.
