Dear Brides,


WS Publishing Group (publisher of the top 30 best-selling wedding books in North America, www.wspublishinggroup.com) is publishing a new book on DIY weddings, and we are looking for the coolest and most creative DIY wedding projects around. Would you be interested in contributing? This is a cool opportunity to plug yourself and your business, get published, and have your projects seen by thousands of people.

Here are the details, and pass this email on to anyone else who might be interested, too!

Send as many projects as you like. If project/s are chosen, you will have those pages in the book attributed to you and your company. If you have a craft-related company, you’ll also go in the Resources section. Free advertising!

Yes, they will. It say:


Send as many projects as you like. If project/s are chosen, you will have those pages in the book attributed to you and your company. If you have a craft-related company, you’ll also go in the Resources section. Free advertising!


So you can do it yourself.If you have a company you will get credit.
