Rock n Roll Bride is a wedding magazine for people who hate wedding magazines.

This is why I started my entire business, as the antithesis to everything I disliked about the world of weddings while I was planning my own wedding. Nothing about that has changed, in fact, I think it's something we're leaning into even more as the brand and business has grown. We really just want to show you that you DO NOT HAVE to have what's trendy, popular, cool or 'normal' when you get married. The landscape of the wedding industry looks very different in 2020 than it did in 2007, but there is still so much work to do. There are still things to question, things to shake up and convention and expectation to reject. It's our job to show you the way, it's your job to make your own decisions about what you want and DO NOT WANT your wedding to be. If you agree with me then you are going to LOVE the latest issue of Rock n Roll Bride magazine!

But first I need to address the obvious

Covid-19 has thrown quite a spanner in the works about getting this issue into stores. In fact, we don't even know if most of our stockists will even be OPEN while this issue is on sale. So, for that reason, if you'd like a copy, I'd like to encourage you to order it directly from us. We have produced extra copies to cope with the expected higher demand and we are ready for you!

Stay home, stay safe, and still get your Rock n Roll Bride fix. I mean, WHAT COULD BE BETTER THAN THAT!? You can also subscribe, at no extra cost, and get every issue delivered direct to your door from now on! And remember, UK shipping is still 100% FREE.

Finally, I have to give an EXTRA BIG SHOUT OUT to all our advertisers in this issue. As you might expect, things are a bit wild in the wedding industry right now and I am forever grateful to every single one of these businesses, most of them small and dealing with their own stresses of keeping their head's above water, for continuing to support us. Even if you are not ready to book new wedding suppliers yet, please keep these guys in mind when you are!
