The Welsh National Wedding Awards, now in its 12th year, recognises the best wedding businesses in Wales. Every year thousands of votes are cast and from these votes shortlists are created with the winners announced at the prestigious 'Welsh National Wedding Awards' ceremony, with 600 guests in attendance each year. We're delighted to announce that Your South Wales Wedding are media partners with The Welsh National Wedding Awards and we cannot wait to celebrate the event with all of this year's nominees.

Voting for the awards is now open. Any bride or groom whose wedding took place or is taking place between 1st September 2022 and 31st August 2023, can vote for a wedding supplier who went above and beyond and made their special day so wonderful. If you'd like to register your business, click here or if you'd like to nominate a supplier, click here.

On 31st August, 2023, all votes will be counted, verified and given a unique score based on our criteria on product quality, value for money, customer service, commitment to wedding and client feedback. This information is then collated, along with further company checks and the top five businesses in each category are shortlisted. All shortlisted businesses will be notified via email and an invitation to purchase tickets to attend the sell-out highly-esteemed award ceremony. 

The award ceremony will take place on 12th November, 2023, and the lucky winners will be announced.

The YouGov Big Survey on Weddings

The YouGov Big Survey on Weddings

The journey that begins with "will you marry me" and ends with "I do" transforms a couple's lives in multiple ways, but it also involves a huge number of decisions, as planning a wedding is no mean feat. Every guest will have an opinion on what a wedding should be like: from what's classy and tacky, to which traditions should be followed and which can be discarded. To help prospective couples get a grip on what these potential guests hope to see in a wedding, YouGov's new Big Survey on Weddings examines all these key debates about what should and shouldn't feature on the big day, including looking at the decisions that brides and grooms would make themselves. The study is part a Big Surveys project: a series of in-depth surveys on British society. It was conducted between 7-9 August 2026, with a sample of 1,784 adults in the UK aged 18 and above.

Brits are swapping the 'big day' for the 'right day' as searches for intimate wedding venues soar

Couples are increasingly choosing quality time over large guest lists, with new search data revealing a growing demand for intimate weddings and stylish registry office ceremonies. According to Google search data analysed by Suit Direct, searches for "small intimate wedding venues near me" have increased by 86% year-on-year, while interest in "micro wedding packages" has risen 23% over the past three months, suggesting more couples are opting for meaningful celebrations that prioritise the experience over extravagance. For many, the legal ceremony is no longer just the paperwork before the "real" wedding. Instead, couples are dressing for the occasion, hiring photographers and celebrating afterwards with an intimate meal or party, proving you don't need a 200-person guest list to make the day feel special.

Swansea and Gower's Rhossili Bay named Britain's best bank holiday beach

Swansea and Gower's Rhossili Bay has been named Britain's best bank holiday beach, scoring 4.9 stars from 6,792 Google reviews. It is the only beach in the ranking to reach 4.9 at that scale, while Wales takes three of the top 10. At Rhossili Bay and the South Gower coast, Swansea, the National Trust listing covers a dramatic coastal stretch. Check tide times and allow extra time for the walk from parking areas to shore. Tenby South Beach in Pembrokeshire is fourth with 4.8 stars from 2,439 reviews. The long waterfront setting combines plenty of sand with Tenby close by, making a mixed beach-and-town day possible. Decide where to park before reaching the busiest streets and aim to arrive early.
