Belief, an international network for wedding planners, just announced the results of the 3rd edition of their exclusive online contest for wedding professionals. Four times a year, the Belief Awards honors the very best weddings produced by top wedding planners from around the globe. This week, Belief Wedding Planners announced the results of the 3rd edition of this international contest for planners.

After poring over more than 250 submissions, a group of judges carefully narrowed the finalists down to 12 winners. On this edition, a great variety of weddings received the awards – from destination weddings to local ceremonies.

Why participate?

The Portuguese wedding planner Rui Mota Pinto participated in three editions of Belief Awards and he considers it a tremendous experience. “It brought more visibility worldwide of my work. Being able to expose my work with elite professionals, and to see what I conceptualize daily exposed worldwide, together with such fantastic work as all the professionals Belief has shown, is not only a way to enrich my knowledge but also  a way  to show that in Portugal we make magnificent weddings and it is a fantastic country able to offer wonderful experiences”, says Rui.

For the Mexican wedding planner Guadalupe Alvarez, the best part of participating in international awards is to see planners from all over the world sharing their views and work. “We love seeing what they do, and how cultures are so different and similar at the same time. We love to see happy couples and lovely designs and more that anything the commitment of the planners and designers to the couples. We decided to participate in the awards to share our work with other amazing professionals and the world. We are creative and dedicated, and we were amazed to know that you can see the amount of love and creativity that we put in our work”, says Guadalupe.
