Giveaway :: Black Friday Grab Bags!

by in Main on

Or, I suppose, Black Friday grab boxes would be more appropriate! We hope y’all had a fabulous turkey day and are enjoying time with family and friends! (Or just enjoying some good old fashioned retail therapy… that’s okay, too!)

In the name of cleaning out our office, we’ve unearthed a pile of exceedingly random items. Some are awesome (think freebie products from events, ever-so-slightly damaged items from photoshoots), and some are, well, random :)

To wit:

Told you! Anyway, in honor of Black Friday, we have 10 awesomely random Southern Weddings grab boxes to give away. In addition to assorted remnants from our infamous office closet, you might even find a copy of V3 in your box! After that, we really have no idea what you’ll find.

Interested? Just leave a comment below telling us your your favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner. Have a great weekend, y’all!

So sorry for the late posting, SW ladies + gents! Today I have a fun little story from a lovely SW reader. Kara ordered a copy of V3, which we sent out, but that was sadly returned to our office for unknown reasons a few days later. I emailed her, asking for another address, and she suggested we send it to her boyfriend. Which we did. You still with me?

I was tickled to receive the most adorable email a few days later from Miss Kara, and this is what it said:

Hi Emily,

I just wanted to let you know that I got the V3 yesterday (Saturday) morning. My boyfriend and I were walking out the door to enjoy a gorgeous fall morning in downtown Grand Rapids. I opened the door, and giggled with excitement as the magazine was sitting there on the door step. Steve was unusually anxious to get going, so he told me I would have to look at the magazine later. We stopped at the Starbucks on the corner, got our coffee, and continued down to the river. As we looked at the rive, he kissed my cheek. When I turned back around, a RING was on his pinkie finger, just staring right at me. He turned me around and got down on his knee! Long story short, after proposing (I said YES!), he surprised me by taking me down to Chicago for the night. I was thrilled to take along my SWM to read, not as a girlfriend, but as a fiancee. :) Perfect timing. Thanks again — it’s perfect!

Kara


Kara and Steve sent along several photos taken by their friend Jill DeVries, including a few from the exact spot on the bridge where Steve proposed. Aren’t they adorable?!

Congratulations, Kara + Steve, from the whole SW team! And, ladies who are anxiously waiting to be proposed to, you know what this means, right? Order a copy of SW and a ring might be right behind!

Reminder: SW V3 Photo Contest!

by in Main on

Since V3 was our biggest + best issue yet, we had to come up with an equally awesome giveaway. (Pretty tough billing, I know.) I think we succeeded, however, with our MEGA Photo Contest.

For all you late-comers who missed the first announcement: y’all have until November 5 to send us a photo of you with SW V3. The more creative the better! There are only two rules: you have to tweet your pic(s) to us (@iloveswmag), and then email it/them to Whitney (whitney at iloveswmag dot com). We’ll feature our favorite submissions on the blog and then vote on them later that week. Simple, right?

What makes this our best (MEGA!) photo contest yet? The prizes, naturally! The winner will get to choose one of four prizes:

1. 10 copies of SW V3 for you + your friends;
2. An ad on the brand new SW site (launching soon!) if you are a vendor;
3. An iPod Nano; or
4. Bragging rights, and a feature right here on the blog!

Told ‘ya it was awesome.

Get your copy of SW V3 now, and start snappin’!
