We love seeing how crafty our readers are!
For couples:
To submit your uber-cool DIY wedding, email us at info at diybride dot com and include the following:
In the body of an email as plain text (no Word, PDF or other formats are accepted)
- Your first names
- Wedding date (including year)
- Wedding location (include city, state, country, resort, etc.)
- What made your wedding creative
- What projects you DIY’ed
- What obstacles did you face in planning a DIY wedding? How did you overcome them?
- Any other details that made your wedding special
Please attach: 10-15 pictures of your wedding, as attachments to the email. (A zipped file is ok as are individual photos; pdf, word, or other formats are not.)
For photographers and other vendors:
- 10-15 pictures of the wedding (A zipped file is ok, pdf; word, or other formats are not.)
- Your name and company name
- Couple’s names
- Wedding date (including year)
- Wedding location (include city, state, country, resort, etc.)
- What made your wedding creative
- What projects were DIY’ed
- What you loved about this wedding
Everyone:
- Please make sure you have the rights to send in the images of choice. In most cases, the photographer owns the rights to the images she/he took at the wedding – the couple does not. Do ask your photog for permission before you send pro shots, please.
- Please use low-res images! My email server tends to freak out when I get large files and I end up not receiving those emails. Do NOT send links to your photos. Send the actual photos in an email, please.
- Do NOT send your submissions in any format other than text in the body of an email. NO PDF, MS Word or other file types will be accepted.
- Please send images from your wedding(s) only. Do not submit shots from other peoples’ weddings or events (unless you are the photographer or otherwise have permission to do so).
- I cannot guarantee that I’ll use every image or will feature every submission.
- It will take time for me to sort through submissions. Please be patient!
