All three of our real bride models will appear on one of our Real Weddings Magazine covers (like the upcoming Winter 2012 cover featured above with our cover brides Crystal, Missy and Jessica) and then ultimately, one of our real bride models will be chosen as our cover model winner and appear on the cover of Real WeddingsMagazine on her own (like the Spring 2012 cover featured below with our cover model winner Jessica).
For the Summer/Fall 2012 contest, if you’re a local bride or a local just-married (cannot be married before June 1, 2011) and you’ve got cover aspirations, then you need to enter! The deadline to get your entry in is February 6, 2012. Be sure to read all of the guidelines and rules for entry on the entry form to make sure that you qualify.

Congratulations to Sacramento area real bride, Jessica Nomicos, for being chosen as our cover model winner!

Featuring local gowns, local floral designers, local hair and make-up teams and the uber-talented Thais Fleury Scheideman from Love at First Click Photography.
We’ll share more photos from this shoot soon, we promise! But for now, we had to share these gorgeous covers with you!

Congrats to Terra & Kale!
A very special wedding happened yesterday…it was the union of one of Real Weddings Magazine’s graphic designer Kale Mendonca and one of our former Real Weddings Cover Model Finalists Terra Galvez!
It was all captured on film (well, not really film but on memory cards) by the uber-fab Emily Heizer of Emily Heizer Photography. Emily’s such a tease — she only posted one image for us to see — we’re DYING for more, of course…but, in the meantime, we just had to share an image of this very special couple with you!
Congrats Terra & Kale — thank you for letting us be a part of your special day!
