Okay, so, today I wanna talk about something a little different – “bride submission.” Now, I know it sounds a bit, uh, out there, but hear me out. It’s actually been a really cool process, and I think it’s something more people should know about. It all started when my best friend, Sarah, got hitched last year. Gorgeous wedding, by the way, totally Pinterest-worthy. Anyway, a few months after the big day, she casually mentioned she was submitting her wedding photos to some online magazines.
I was like, “Wait, what? You can do that?” And that’s how the rabbit hole began. Turns out, there are tons of websites and magazines that feature real weddings. It’s not just for celebrities or super fancy events. Regular folks like us can get our weddings published too. I was intrigued. So, I started researching, you know, just to see what the deal was. I learned that these publications usually look for unique weddings that would make great inspiration. I found some websites with submission forms and some editors’ contact information.
The Process Begins
I started digging through all the wedding photos. We had so many great shots from our photographer, it was actually kind of hard to narrow it down. After a solid week of going back and forth, I finally settled on a collection that I thought really captured the vibe of our wedding.
The next step was figuring out where to submit. I found a bunch of different blogs and magazines that seemed like they might be a good fit, and I made a list. Some had specific guidelines, like wanting weddings with a certain theme or style, so I made sure to read those carefully.
Then came the actual submission. Most places had online forms where you could upload photos and write a little blurb about the wedding. I spent hours crafting the perfect description, trying to highlight all the little details that made our day special. I talked about the venue, the decorations, the food, you name it. I also had to include a list of all the vendors we used, like the photographer, the florist, and the caterer. That was a bit of a pain, but it was worth it.
Waiting Game
After hitting “submit,” the waiting game began. It’s kind of nerve-wracking, to be honest. You put all this effort into showcasing your special day, and then you just have to hope that someone out there likes it enough to publish it. I tried not to get my hopes up too much, but I couldn’t help checking my email like a crazy person every five minutes. After submitting to all of them, I did not expect anything back.
Success!
Then, a few weeks later, it happened. I got an email from one of the blogs I’d submitted to. They loved our wedding and wanted to feature it! I was so excited, I literally jumped up and down. It was such a cool feeling to know that our wedding would be shared with other people, maybe even inspire some future brides.
So, that’s my story about bride submission. It was a fun and rewarding experience, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who’s proud of their wedding day and wants to share it with the world.
- First, I started by researching about bride submission online.
- Then, I picked out the best photos from my wedding.
- Next, I found some websites and magazines to submit to.
- After that, I filled out the submission forms and wrote about my wedding.
- Finally, I waited and got an email saying my wedding would be featured!
It’s not about bragging or anything. It’s more about sharing your joy and maybe giving some inspiration to other couples planning their own weddings. Plus, it’s a pretty cool keepsake to have your wedding featured somewhere. So yeah, if you’re a bride, or a groom for that matter, and you’re proud of your big day, give it a shot. You never know, you might just end up seeing your wedding in a magazine or on a blog!
