You may not know it, but Guides for Brides has a sister company that specialises in luxury weddings both in the UK and abroad: Beyond Weddings. Launched last year, Beyond Weddings is an exclusive collection of over 300 handpicked wedding venues and hotels worldwide - and it's just been shortlisted for Best in Luxury at The International Travel & Tourism Awards 2018!

This prestigious new awards scheme was created by industry leader and respected organisation World Travel Market to recognise the very best of travel and tourism on a global scale. Beyond Weddings fought off fierce competition from destinations, tourist boards, private sector companies and individuals to be shortlisted in the Best in Luxury category, which we feel is a reflection of Beyond’s dedication to the very best hotels and wedding venues worldwide. The shortlist was selected by an esteemed panel of judges, including Marcelo Risi, UNWTO Chief of Communications, and Nick Pilbeam, Reed Travel, Divisional Director.

The winner will be announced in front of 500 industry professionals at the glamorous Tobacco Dock in London tonight. 

If you're planning a wedding in one of the top UK wedding venues, or you live in the UK and are planning a destination wedding, then Beyond Weddings could be the perfect fit for you. Beyond handpicks the very best hotels, wedding venues and wedding planners from the most popular places to get married worldwide to help you plan a wedding beyond your imagination.
