CHEVY CHASE, Md., Jan. 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- WeddingWire, Inc., the leading global online marketplace for the wedding and event industry, announced today the winners of its ninth annual Couples' Choice Awards^®. The 2017 Couples Choice Awards recognize the top five percent of wedding professionals demonstrating excellence in quality, service, responsiveness and professionalism, and they distinguish these vendors as premier leaders in their industry. The awards are given to the top local wedding professionals across more than 20 different service categories, ranging from wedding venues to wedding photographers.

"The Couples' Choice Awards' ninth year features one of the most impressive groups of dedicated and acclaimed wedding professionals yet," said Timothy Chi, CEO, WeddingWire. "It is our honor to work with exceptional professionals who not only make a couple's big day possible, but also contribute to the more than 2.5 million U.S. reviews represented on WeddingWire. We congratulate all of this year's winners on their achievements."

The WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards utilize reviews from newlyweds about their experiences working with professionals to determine the winners. These top wedding vendors are determined by the quality, quantity, consistency, and timeliness of the reviews received from their clients. Nine out of 10 engaged couples rely on reviews when searching for wedding vendors, and the Couples' Choice Awards truly showcase the significance and relevance of reviews in the wedding and event industry.

"It is an honor to be recognized for the 2017 Couple's Choice Awards. As a wedding venue, we understand that couples look at reviews, understand what WeddingWire [awards] badges indicate, and use that information as part of their decision," said Casey Clark, Marketing Manager, Antrim 1844 Country House Hotel in Taneytown, MD. "Our team also understands the importance of maintaining excellence as a venue so that we can continue to be a part of this prestigious recognition which has clearly driven revenue for us."

It gave me peace of mind knowing I was making a great decision," said Samantha, a WeddingWire user from Delaware.  "The awards tended to reinforce the impression I got after making contact with each vendor that had a Couples' Choice Award."
