Thank you to everyone for your patience this week and next as I move cross-country from Los Angeles to Chapel Hill, NC. I have over 700 messages to respond to from my travels this week and promise to get to them ASAP. If you need immediate assistance or have questions, please email Executive Editor, Danielle Flowers {danielle at swsmag dot com} or Features Editor, Leah Harrison, at {leah at swsmag dot com}. You can find very helpful info in our FAQ section about submitting real weddings and details features.
I am in Eugene, Oregon, right now for my brother-in-law’s wedding which will be fabulous! I promise to post pics and details after the festivities. We have been greeted with the most beautiful welcome baskets filled to the brim with local Oregon goodies. Such a treat to be a guest at a wedding! Here is the inspiration board the Bliss girls put together for their big day. Andy + Amy will be married tomorrow on a Christmas tree farm among patches of wild blueberries and poppies. So beautiful!
On Monday we are off to NC for the big move. I am so excited to meet all of the NC brides and vendors who have emailed me over the last weeks. Thank you for the very warm Southern welcome!
This has been a very exciting week for SWS. A million thanks to the people who emailed about advertising. We will get contracts out to you by July 15th. Online galleries will now go live in August (we received so many requests that we’ve had to extend the launch date for our web designer), so if you have written us to reserve, we have you on the list. For now, gather your 10 favorite images and write a 300 word write up about yourself. Email this info to us when you receive your contract.
A FAQ: If I advertise online and on the blog, can I wait to decide on print and still get the package discount? Yes.
