The Weddy Awards

Celebrating excellence in Northern Virginia's wedding industry.

The Weddys recognize the professionals whose creativity, service and dedication help make wedding celebrations memorable for the couples they serve.

Recognizing the Best in Weddings

Excellence Deserves to Be Recognized

Weddings come together because of the work of talented professionals behind the scenes. The Weddy Awards recognize the venues, planners, photographers, florists, bakers, caterers, entertainers and other professionals whose work helps couples bring their celebrations to life.

The Weddys give wedding professionals an opportunity to share the work they are proud of, tell the stories behind that work and receive recognition within the Northern Virginia wedding community.
