About this Event
California Wedding Day invites you to join us for a celebration honoring the most innovative and talented in the wedding industry for the Best of 2026 Awards Gala on Tuesday, May 12, 2026 at The Linden Club in Long Beach, California.
The finalists were selected through an open online vote earlier this year by readers, followers, supporters, and peers. This was followed by a second round of voting conducted exclusively by the wedding community on the finalists.
