Sep 30, 2007

CB warmly welcomes the following types of submissions:
Real weddings
Inspiration shoots or faux weddings
Engagement parties
Engagement sessions
Bridal showers
Rehearsal dinners
+ Products

Please Note:
- Always make sure you have permission from the photographer {if you, yourself, are not the photographer} to submit photos. Please let me know this in your e-mail.
- Also, I strive to keep the content on Classic Bride fresh and different from fellow blogs so if you have already sent your submission to another site or if your submission has been published elsewhere, let me know that in your e-mail. If you don't and I find out later, I do reserve the right to either unschedule your post or remove it entirely from my blog.

For Real Wedding Submissions
Send your submission to theclassicbride@gmail.com and please include:
- Name of couple
- Wedding location - city, state, and venues
- A list of all vendors included in the day with URL links, if applicable
- Information about the day, preferably provided by the bride and/or groom. I've provided a few starter questions below but am looking for a well-rounded story of the day. :) The more details, the better!
- Attach a zipfile of 50-60 images. These need to include a good variety of beautiful details {flowers, stationery, cake, etc.}, emotional shots and images of your venue{s}. Please ensure that all images are in a .jpeg or .gif format and measure 600 pixels in width and are void of logos and/or watermarks {may include diptychs, triptychs, etc. - but each image must measure 600 pixels in width}.

Questions for the bride and/or groom to answer:
- Tell us about the vision you had for the day.
- Tell us about the location and style you chose and why.
- What were your favorite special/personal touches?
- Favorite memory of the day?
- If you could give one piece of advice to yourself back when you were a bride-to-be/groom-to-be, what would it be?

Unfortunately, I may not have time to respond to all submissions. If I'm in need of more information or am interested in sharing your submission, I will definitely let you know. And please keep in mind that I will not respond to mass e-mails and/or press releases. Thanks!
