Marley's Magical Creations, with a studio in Cefn Mawr, Wrexham, won Best Wedding Venue Stylist.

They couldn't attend the awards, adding "our phone blew up from all the messages". 

They added: "We honestly couldn't believe it. We are proud to say this is the second time in three years we have won this award and consider this a huge achievement. 

"This year has been the most challenging for us, as we purchased, renovated and opened our very own studio in Cefn Mawr, where we can hold face to face appointments and our clients can view our items, meaning we can now offer a more relaxed personal service to ensure our standards are at the highest level.

"We would love to thank all our happy couples who took the time to send us a vote. It really does mean the world to us."

Other winners on the night were Vivid Floral Design, in Wrexham - Best Wedding Florist; and Emily Luxury Events Musician, in Holywell - Best Wedding Entertainment - Music.

Nathan Hales, founder of the North Wales Wedding Awards and Wedding Club Network, added: "The North Wales wedding industry is in fantastic shape. The standard is increasing every year and highlights the importance of the awards, as we celebrate the very best venues and suppliers from across North Wales.
