Guides for Brides launched The Best of the Blog magazine in September 2016. The initial print run of 12,000 proved incredibly popular with brides and grooms; with brides loving the inspirational editorial and imagery and grooms finding it to be a no-nonsense guide to the important parts of wedding planning and wedding day etiquette so a second edition was published for Spring 2017. The third edition will be printed in August 2017 and will cover the Autumn 2017 and Spring 2018 wedding fair seasons.

The magazine has been very popular as it contains a mix of essential features and real weddings with a very limited number of advertisement pages. Advertising is available only to invited businesses. 

The first edition can be seen here and the second edition can be seen here.

Distribution at all the main UK wedding shows including:

  • National Wedding Show
  • Bliss Wedding Shows
  • The Wedding Fairs – Mercury Events
  • Asian Wedding Show
  • Wedaway
  • Quintessentially Atelier
