I wanted to say THANK YOU because I was asked to shoot a big event in Santa Barbara (the biggest gig I've landed yet) because they happened to pick up your magazine while waiting in line at a rental store...she saw my ad, loved the journalism and booked me. Woohoo! So thanks!!!  Jayson, Photographer, March 2010

Good Morning! I just wanted to start my day by thanking you both for your hard work and dedication to the show yesterday. We had a great time, made some nice profesional contacts and walked away with 35+ potential brides. I hope you both have a few days off and might even be sleeping in for the first time in weeks! Take care and thank you again. Amanda, Florist, November 2009

Thank you all for arranging a fantastic show this past weekend in Monterey. I was very happy to be a part of it. Nancy, Coordinator, November 2009

Thanks for everything... we have really enjoyed EVERY aspect of working with you! We are in a couple other magazines, and have booths in a few other bridal shows, but we have not gotten the same kind of response from a booth a website and a bridal show combo like yours!... I can't wait to see what the magazine will do! Thanks for letting us be a part!
Erin, Photographer. July 2008

We definitely want to participate in your Bridal Shows again! Our first show with Central Coast Bride was your April 2008 San Luis Obispo one and we are absolutely thrilled with the results. We booked 6 weddings at the show itself and have continued booking weddings ever since. We have had weddings every weekend as a result! Salon Owner. June 2008

This past bridal show we signed up the GREATEST number of weddings we have EVER done on the day of the bridal show itself!! Max & Dorothy, Photographers. April 2008

I wanted to drop you a note to thank you for all of the work your company does. I know that my business has grown a great deal due to the exposure at the Expo and your magazine. Colleen, Jeweler. April 2008

Just wanted to say that you guys are doing such a great job! You're organized, technologically savvy, thoughtful, and responsive. Your emails to us, your vendors, have taken a huge leap in quality this past year, and I really appreciate it. May your business grow and grow! Margot, Custom Bridal Shoes. April 2008

The Wedding Expo was outstanding this year!! We received many new prospects for 2009 and are very excited!! Bob, DJ. April 2008

I'm still so thrilled about your show. I still trying to figure out what you are doing that makes your show so much better than ANY other I've ever done. Mar, Jeweler. April 2008

We attended a bridal faire in the valley recently, our first time to participate in a faire other than yours. I wanted to thank you for doing such a great job with your Bridal Shows. Not having experience with other faires to compare yours to, I didn't realize how well yours were run and how large your turnouts were. Thank you! Andrea, Bridal Shop Owner. February, 2008.

I just wanted to drop you an email and thank you for the wonderful Bridal fair you put together and worked so hard on! I had an overwhelming response yesterday and am absolutely inundated with phone calls and emails today! I couldn't be more pleased! Jessica, Florist. October 2006

Once again, things went wonderfully - hats off to you for a job well done. Everyone seemed pleased about the turn out and the positive feel they got from the potential customers. We always appreciate (and realize) the amount of work and time you put into these faires. Thanks again! Kim, Bridal shop owner. October 2006

I would just like to let you know that your magazine is amazing. I currently run advertisements in other various media resources but none of them compare to the standard of quality that you provide. Since I have started advertising with you, I have experienced a dramatic increase in bridal traffic. Your system is incredible. The CCB magazine itself is top notch. You attract the best talent in all categories of the bridal field, thereby providing consumers with a high profile list from which to choose. The functions sponsored by your company, (bridal shows), are always high quality events. Finally, there is the referral list, which is always provided in an accurate and timely manner. The referrals alone have played an incredible role towards the increase in my customer base. All my thanks from a loyal and very satisfied advertiser and business owner. Daniel, DJ. September 2005

We have been advertising in Central Coast Bride magazine for several years and not only have had a great response from customers who have seen our ads, but also from the follow-up emails (i.e., referrals) that get sent to us (from their website) from brides looking for a caterer. We keep track of all calls and emails from brides and how they heard about us. A major portion of our business comes from CCB. In addition, we are very impressed with their professionalism in handling their Spring and Fall Bridal Faires. We have participated in several, and their set-up, traffic flow and handling of both participants and brides/grooms is top-notch. Valerie. Catering company owner. August 2005

After looking at all our options, we chose Central Coast Bride for our limited advertising budget because it's a high quality magazine with great distribution. It's proven to be a valuable tool for our wedding business and we couldn't be happier with the service we've received. Thank you very much for all your help! Judith. Reception site manager. September 2005

I wanted to let you know how much I love our new ad in the latest issue of your wonderful magazine. I had such a good response from the previous ads, and it feels really exciting to be moving up to the new, larger full-color ad. (I love the placement, and also the thought you put into making sure the facing page complements the ad -- it looks great!) Your magazine is a bride favorite, and I get a lot of calls from prospective brides who tell me they found us through either your magazine or the CCB website. Thanks for your help in making my business grow, and keep up the great work! Daniella. Owner reception site. September 2005

Just wanted to say thanks for everything. Being a part of Central Coast Bride has helped us so much. Greg. Reception site manager. June 2005

Hello there…just wanted to let you know, we have already received two contacts from the web page and are very excited about this. Amy. Vocalist. New advertiser of one month. July 2005

Bravo! I got a hold of the new edition of the magazine and it looks fantastic! … You seem to have the midas touch. Thanks for doing such a great job. You really make us all look great! Julie. Event decorator. August 2004

I got married last year in April and my wife really liked your mag. My sister just got engaged, so we want to get her your mag as a gift.Thanks again for your help. And keep up the good work!! :)  Jacob July 2011

I just wanted to say thank you for having such a great website with good information! I am not from the Central Coast originally and have been trying to find a reception venue for my Nov. 14 2009 wedding. The events coordinator from Cottonwood Winery told me to check out your site. Thanks again! Heidi March 2008

Thank you for your down loads, my Mom the computer wiz she figured it out and we are planning away!!! Thanks for all your hard work to organize these worksheets. It has been a tremendous help. Signed - A more relaxed bride to be. Gisele January 2007

I would like to thank you for providing such a great resource for us brides-to-be! My wedding is this October, and I have found your magazine to be indispensable! I was so happy to receive this year's edition at the CCWP Bridal Faire this past Sunday. Annie January 2007

Wonderful site! I just wanted to comment on your excellent website! I live in Indiana and am planning my wedding for Summer 2007 in the SLO area. Your website is a wonderful tool for me to use while I plan from the Midwest. Thank you for providing such a useful and helpful service. Sarah February 2006

I just wanted to say that this web site is a huge life saver. Having lived on the Central Coast for only two years, I was quite overwhelmed. There is so much to think about. Especially trying to find a wedding venue. I remembered that I saw this website and I looked it up and wow, everything I need to know is all on one site. Your website was a huge help. Thank you. Drina. August 2005
