Nation’s Wedding Awards 2023: Top-rated Leeds wedding car business scoops national award

The first ever Nation’s Wedding Awards took place on November 1 at the Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel and the ceremony was hosted by DJ, comedian and presenter Tommy Sandhu.

The awards have been set up by Oceanic Events to honour the talented individuals, teams and businesses who provide a wedding day to remember.

Top celebrants, hairstylists, venues and photographers gathered together to celebrate their achievements. The UK-wide event follows the English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish and Northern Ireland Wedding Awards.

Leeds-based business Love Me Do Wedding Cars, which provides wedding transport across Yorkshire and Manchester, has won Transport Provider of the Year at the Nation’s Wedding Awards 2023.

The already multi-award winning business offers a number of vehicles to choose from, from the classic white Beauford Convertible to a quirky VW Campervan. It has hundreds of glowing reviews, with a 4.9/5 star rating on Facebook and a 5/5 star rating on Google reviews.

A spokesperson for the Nation’s Wedding Awards 2023 said: “It was another outstanding event. It was another opportunity for us to showcase those who have shown great commitment, professionalism, creativity and care for their clients.

"The winners truly deserve this recognition for their exceptional work, and we hope that their success will inspire others in the industry to strive for excellence. We want to congratulate the all of our winners on their accomplishments.”
