A RHYL wedding celebrant said it feels “amazing” to have won a regional wedding award, just a few years after nearly losing the business.

Sarah Bowness’ business, Ceremonies With Personality by Sarah B, won the ‘Best Wedding Celebrant’ category at the North Wales Wedding Awards ceremony at Rydal Penrhos on October 29.

Sarah has also been nominated for ‘Best Celebrant in North Wales’ and ‘Best Celebrant in Wales’ at the national level.

The business caters for a range of events, putting on light hearted and relaxed ceremonies for weddings, elopement weddings, naming days, vow renewals and funerals.

The award-winning venture has earned several prizes in the last year, winning the same category of the awards last year, as well as claiming victory in the ‘Special Touches in North Wales’ at the National Welsh Wedding Awards and a national award for ‘Best In Wales for Special Touches’.

Sarah followed this up by winning ‘Best Wedding Celebrant for North Wales’ at the Global Wedding Awards earlier this year.

Sarah said of her win: “A massive thank you to all of you for voting for me and making the win possible, you’re all amazing.

“Huge thank you to North Wales Wedding Guide for arranging a fantastic night.

“To all my fellow celebrants and finalists, it was such a joy to celebrate with you all.

“Here’s to another amazing year!”
