Uptown Magazine features 6 Clients in Wedding Issue

More and more lifestyle publications are capitalizing on the growing wedding market and releasing annual Wedding issues just in time for the engagement season. As a bridal public relations agency, we were contacted by the editors of Coastal Living and Uptown magazines to help guide them on what’s new and hot in the wedding industry.

Today, we’d like to share the gorgeous 2013 Weddings & Travel issue of Uptown, a luxury lifestyle glossy for affluent African Americans, which featured not one, not two, but SIX of I Do PR clients!!
