How are the ABIA Awards determined?

Winners & Finalists are selected solely based on ratings & reviews from more than 30,000 newlyweds each year and are determined by a combination of excellence in four factors: quality of product, quality of service, attitude of staff and overall value.

Vendors must also achieve a minimum number of nominations to be considered for an ABIA Award; the minimum number is a variable based on the average number of nominations all vendors in the same category receive across the same period: read on to learn more about how the Awards are determined.

National Designer of Dreams Awards

ABIA National Award Winners must achieve an average customer satisfaction rating above 98% across 4 consecutive years. The National Designer of Dreams title is considered ABIA’s highest honour along with being selected to enter ABIA’s Hall of Fame.

The ABIA Difference

Built on the principles of integrity, equality and inclusivity, the ABIA Wedding Industry Awards are unlike any other Wedding Awards Program. Since 1996, ABIA’s mission is to set greater standards for the Australian Wedding Marketplace, promoting trustworthy wedding vendors and educating engaged couples.
