QUESTION: can you contact me via so that we can further discuss this. I was also under the understanding that you were from Alberta - are you?
AnswerHi Shannon!
I'm not sure how you wanted me to contact you further as your email left it hanging after 'contact me via...'.. so I'll try this route and see..
Yes, I am from Alberta. I owned and operated a very busy bridal salon where I also did fresh flowers, decor rentals and wedding gowns as well as regular wedding planning services for over 10 years. Sadly, I lost that in my divorce three years ago.
I have been living in BC for the last three years, and am in the process of starting up an online wedding business again.
I am a Calgary girl and have family there and many friends still. I visit there regularly and am very familiar with the trends of Alberta weddings as I still have a finger on that pulse.
I know that your magazine is fairly new. Can you give me some insight as to what your readership base is at this point, and your magazine demographics (size, distribution, etc)? I noticed your site is down for maintenance, so I wasn't able to gleam any further info from that.
Thanks!
Melanie
