Greetings from Rocky Mountain Bride's Editor

The year 2010 marks our 15th year in production, and RMB has made some huge advances in the mountain regions putting us at the top of our market for destination weddings in the unique resort communities of the mountains and the surrounding valleys.

Each year, we have sought out new ways to expand our coverage with new initiatives in distribution, newsletter communications, more feature weddings and partnerships at bridal shows (just to mention a few). Due to our overwhelming success at reaching brides through all these tactics, we will continue to follow this path expanding with new wedding Television production streamed both online as well as on cable networks around the region. In addition, we launched a new and improved website in early 2010.

We know our readers are your customers and we continue to qualify both our advertisers and our readers to bring the two of you together. We also understand there are a ton of media opportunities for wedding vendors and that is why we choose to be a niche magazine and online service for the Rocky Mountain West Region and continue to be the experts in destination mountain weddings. There is no comparison to other regional publications and websites.

We look forward to working with you!
All the Best~

Juli Rathke
