Hello! I’ve just popped up from my editing hole to say “Yay its Thursday Treats time!” The next issue of the magazine goes to print in a few days so I’m currently locked down and getting serious on checking proofs, dotting i’s, crossing t’s and making sure it’s as perfect as it possibly can be. WISH ME LUCK!

People have been begging me for a sneak peek of the new design too so here’s a little teeny one for you. Doesn’t it look amazing?! That Shauna sure is talented! I can’t wait to finally hold it in my hands.

If you haven’t already, you can pre-order a copy now. Issue 4 is released on September 3rd, shipping to the UK is free and we have less than 3/4 the stock allocated for online orders remaining! If you struggled to find one in any shops near you, or you don’t live in the UK, order one now or don’t you dare come crying to me when they’re all sold out!

I also joined Periscope this week. Are you on it? I did my first broadcast this afternoon (you can watch it here) where I showed people my office, answered a ton of questions AND quickly showed one of the real wedding spreads in the magazine! It was so weird and fun! I usually groan when there’s a new social media to get to grips with, but this seems like it’s going to be super entertaining. Download the app and follow me (my name is RocknRollBride of course).
