What are the Top Tier Wedding Awards? 

The Top Tier Wedding Awards is a process designed to recognize, reward, encourage and promote the high quality wedding suppliers and venues based in the North of Scotland. Each calendar year brides and grooms who married in the area are asked to vote for only their top three suppliers.

In addition they are asked to name the best performer as their gold nominee second as silver and third best as bronze. The votes are then divided into the categories best suited to those nominated.

When the voting closes after 31st December those with the highest number of votes are announced as finalists. The overall winners in each category are judged on the finalists who have the highest number of points when the gold (3 points), silver (2 points) and bronze (1 point) are added up.

The winners are crowned and receive their awards at our Gala Awards Dinner held in February each year. You can visit how it works for more detailed information and click here for details of the current finalists and winners. Voting for the 2026 awards is open now.
