Real Weddings and Idea Galleries
| O V E R V I E W :: |
| Printing in the bay area for 17 years, we've learned that a truly successful publication must reach and retain the attention of every bride, not just one economic set. |
| To deliver broad range appeal we feature a plethora of ideas throughout the Idea Gallery and Real Weddings. From trendy and opulent, to traditional and romantic, to pricey and price sensitive, we strive to present ideas that capture the attention of every bride. |
| :: Our brides range from 23 to 45 years old. |
| :: Their budgets range from small ($18k) to large ($90k+). |
| :: Their tastes range from sophisticated to simplistic. |
| :: They prioritize--spending high dollar on some things, low on others. |
S U B M I S S I O N D E T A I L S :: |
| :: All images should be HIGH RESOLUTION--300 dpi for print. |
| :: Compressing low-res image from a website will reduce them to about 25% in size. |
| :: Suggested image size range: 4" x 6". |
| :: Images submitted may be used elsewhere in Sacramento Weddings or on The Online Bridal Network. |
| :: Do not send original discs or prints. CD's are not returned. |
| :: We prefer all submission elements in electronic form (no contact sheetsplease). |
| Please help us give credit where credit is due by providing the names of important contributors, such as the designer, photographer and event coordinator when appropriate. |
R E A L W E D D I N G S :: |
| We're looking for unique and inspiring ideas, ethnic and cultural elements, and of course a splash of romance and emotion. Whether your bride's budget was large or small, we welcome all Real Wedding submissions that tell a story and offer ideas for our readers. |
