The star-studded evening was hosted by BBC Leicester broadcaster Emma Boydell, who presented the awards. A spokesperson commented, “We're very honoured to have welcomed such talented individuals at the third English Wedding Awards 2018. When we first started delivering these awards, we never thought that one day we would have to split the ceremony into two sittings due to the high demand of the public.
“It was a memorable and inspiring night, reflecting the professionalism that flows within the country's wedding industry. We would like to congratulate all finalists and winners for their amazing achievements.”

The event also provided the opportunity to raise funds for this year's official charity partner, the Make-A-Wish Foundation UK which grants wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening conditions.
