Second placing, and winner of the People's Choice award - which was decided by online voting - was won by Nehsha Moynihan, who had almost twice the votes of the others.
Third placing went to Mandy Hamon.
Rotorua Daily Post advertising manager Janine Davy said judging had been tough.
"It's not a beauty pageant, the brides had to write an essay and be interviewed. It was about the overall day, if they would do anything different, the planning. We also talked about married life.
"The general theme that came through was it was about friends and family."
