Episode 69 - All Things Awards, which ones suppliers and couples should be looking at...
🎙️ All Things Weddings – Episode 69
Hosts: Scott (wedding photographer) & Hannah (wedding planner)
It's awards season!! You may be seeing suppliers everywhere talking about awards they have won, why they enter awards, why they don't enter awards and everything in between. So this week, Hannah and Scott cover the big (and often controversial) topic of awards.
They Discuss;
Most awards are paid for, as they are a business, what does this mean for openness and fairness.
Not all suppliers are considered for awards, how most awards work.
The selection process is not always transparent and what that means for those won and didn't win.
Fairness varies among different award organisations. Not all awards are made equal.
Winning an award often requires financial investment, is it worth it for suppliers?
The top lists are not comprehensive of all talent, be wary of these lists.
Awards can influence public perception of suppliers, do we think suppliers should enter and do we think couples should pay attention?
Criticism exists regarding the legitimacy of awards.
Understanding the award process is crucial for everyone but can be very hard to do.
