EXQUISITE WEDDINGS TESTIMONIALS
“...one of our biggest clients booked to date told me upon their initial
consultation that as soon as they saw our ad in the magazine they just
knew they wanted us to do the photos for their wedding. That was
a huge compliment, and a testament, that advertising with Exquisite
Weddings was worth every penny! ”
—Shannon Henry
STUDIO CARRÉ
“We are beyond thrilled to be part of the Exquisite Weddings family.
Not only do we love the magazine, but we get so much more than
just an ad. The related events and fantastic people make our relationship so beneficial and fun! We’ve wound up with some truly amazing
clients, and our network with other wedding artists we’ve met through
Exquisite is invaluable!”
—Nick & Aleah Valley
THE GOOD LIFE SPECIAL EVENTS
“Exquisite Weddings’ high standards for advertisers and quality of
publication creates credibility and affords us visibility to a bride with a
more discerning taste. Participating in the venue showcase events gives
“
us a chance to demonstrate our skills so that brides come in confident
With so many wedding industry
publications locally available, Exquisite
Weddings easily grabbed my
attention. From the cleanly designed,
fashionable front covers to the
relevant content presented in a
contemporary, fluid layout, they’re
a welcome breath of fresh air in a
very saturated market. Sensing that
engaged couples would enjoy their
reading experience with Exquisite
Weddings, my decision to advertise
with them was an easy one.

in the product we offer.”
—ADORATIONS BOTANICAL ARTISTRY
“We are so excited we are published in an article in the spring 2010
Exquisite Weddings issue! We appreciate the lengths you go through
to make sure all vendors are included. We actually met with a father
and mother of the bride last week who will likely book all or most of
the vendors listed for their daughter’s wedding based exclusively off
that article! They have already met with us, the photographer, the
wedding planner and florist. Thank you from all of us! We love
working together.”
