When Real Weddings Magazine was started in 2007, we held our first ever Cover Model Contest at Wine & Roses Hotel, Restaurant and Spa, so what better way to commemorate 10 great years back at where we started! In addition to the great venue, we were lucky enough to work with some of the most talented vendors in our area – from hair & makeup and dresses to flowers, cakes and decor rentals, we had everything we needed to produce this fun photo shoot.
Watch our Behind The Scenes video to hear from the talented vendors themselves!
The cover model finalist contest photo shoot Real Weddings Magazine team members who produced this editorial feature include: produced by Susie Baggett, Justin Buettner, Aimee Carroll, Eudelys Blanco Estaba, Cait Herrera, Kimberly Hunter, Tatiana Jitari, Nathalia Kallan, Tara Mendahna, Emily Peter, Amanda Rinehart, Aaron Roseli, Kelley Saia, Nicole Shebl, Wendy Sipple, Leah Sisto and Megan Wiskus.
And, of course, thank you to all of the wedding professionals who contributed to our cover model finalist feature:
