Southern Weddings

We’ve completed our last photo shoot, Nicole and Morgan are hard at work on layout, and we’re dusting off our SWPS uniforms. That can only mean one thing: it’s time to open V7 preorders! Yeehaw!!

Southern Weddings V7 will debut on newsstands around the country on Tuesday, November 4 (election day — easy to remember!). For those of you who are new to the game and wondering what this pre-order business is all about, here’s how it works: SW is distributed in Target, Walmart, Barnes & Noble, Walgreens, and a whole heap of grocery stores including the one and only Piggly Wiggly. However, we’re not in every store in every chain in every town (yet!), and depending on where you live, it might be tough to find a copy (especially because uber fans have been known to buy out a store’s whole stock in one fell swoop!).

If you want to save yourself the hassle and make sure you have your copy as soon as possible, place your pre-order today and come November, your copy will be sitting pretty on your doorstep! Plus, old hands know copies from our office come with a few extra-special surprises :)

We’ve been sharing lots of behind the scenes details on instagram all summer! Check the hashtag #MakingSouthernWeddings for all the fun!

V7 is packed chockfull of all the Southern wedding goodness you’ve come to know and love. In addition to editorials from Tec Petaja, KT Merry, Ryan Ray, Ali Harper, Stefanie Miles, Nancy Ray, Hey Gorgeous Events, Landon Jacob, Blue-Eyed Yonder, and Jessica Lorren, among MANY other talented folks, we are bouncing up and down in excitement that we’ll be sharing SEVENTEEN real weddings in this issue!! That’s 50% more than last year, and each one is downright incredible! You will not want to miss these beauties.

Last year we personally shipped around 750 copies from our humble office in the first few days of V6′s release, and we expect to top that number this year! Craziness, y’all!!

To add to the madness and make sure you have a copy in hand the minute V7 is available, just click here! Remember, even though you’ll pay now, your order won’t be shipped until November! If you order a magazine combo or any other item with your V7 pre-order, please note that your entire order will ship in November, though normal shop orders will continue shipping as usual!

A few other exciting items of note:

1. We have VERY FEW ad spots remaining in V7! If you’re interested, be sure to email Marissa lickety-split, as we know these will fly.
2. Changes to the Collection! Now that we’ve sold out of V4, Collections include one copy each of V5, V6, and V7, and at a slight discount to boot.

Any questions, let us know! We are crazy, hoppin’ excited over here, y’all!! We can’t wait to share all the goodness we’ve been working on!
