Updated Website for Kentucky Bride magazine …

jackiandjaimeson — Thu, 20 May 2010 12:00:56 +0000

Jacki, Julie and myself have been so gracious and honored for all of the positive feedback on the last two issues of Kentucky Bride magazine, that we just can’t say enough THANK YOU’s. We have worked tirelessly to bring you the most informative articles, celebrity interviews, runway dresses, REAL Kentucky weddings, and the most unique accessories, tablescapes and so much more. We are also very excited about the new look of the magazine, especially the new Cover Look. {see below}

Winter 2010 issue

Spring 2010 issue

With all of these wonderful changes, we wanted to make sure that we kept our web presence just as wonderful, so we have given the website a little upgrade. After listening to your suggestions and receiving an overwhelming number of products to feature in the magazine, we have added some forms that will make the process much easier.

We’ve also “prettied” up our tab names and hope you enjoy the fun-ness that we hope to bring to your wedding. Please, go online to www.kentuckybridemagazine.com to see the changes. One of the best features is that you can now submit your Real Kentucky wedding online! We are so excited about this option and can’t wait to read about your big day!
