The Wedding Industry Awards (TWIA) is the most important event in any wedding suppliers diary. Each supplier present has been voted there by thier own clients ~ with their nominations & votes. The Regional Finalists are at the top of their game & deserve all the praise they get. They also deserve a great knees up & a pat on the back for all their hard work which is what they get from TWIA...
I was lucky to be a finalist in both 2020 & 2021 & have attended the West Midlands event myself as a hopeful winner (maybe next time!)
I was so glad to able to photograph the East Midlands event in Leicester at The City Rooms....
Every Winner from this evening along with all Regional events winners from across the UK, go onto be finalists for the National Awards night in January 2024....
The TWIA Team have now released the official photographs so I wanted to share the more candid moments here in my blog...
The drinks were flowing.....
Once fed, watered & entertained by 24 Live Acoustic it was time to head upstairs to find a seat and wait for Damian Bailey with his boundless energy to whip up the crowd and start presenting the Awards
Time for the Awards!
Damian runs onto the stage high fiving the crowd, he encourages everyone who wins an award to do the same... his energy is boundless...
Damian takes a quick selfie with the crowd....
and its onto the Awards....
Each Winner & Highly Commended get to take a run up to accept their award. I photographed them accepting their award from Damian & they got an official photograph in front of the TWIA Logo Wall too.... I can't include every photograph & this blog is more on the candid moments, so I will add just a couple of the official pics of Alice Rose Bridal here accepting her Award

'Run Up' photographs...... were great fun to capture!
When you need to run, those heels come off!
I wish I could add everyones tags but the TWIA team already have.... take a look at their winners section here
It was a fabulous night!
After the Awards, each estatic winner had an interview to camera and I was asked to capture candid moments....
The best of luck to all of the winners for the FINALS in January 2024
The next event is the West Midlands Finals & I will be there at The Edgbaston Park Hotel on Monday evening to do it all again.....
