GENERAL INFORMATION
Colorado
Celebrations (The Wedding Guide of Northern Colorado) was established
20 years ago, and is found in
over 60 major markets across the US, Canada and London. We
combine our skills as publishers of the Northern Colorado and Wyoming issues,
including over 20 years experience in Wedding Consulting and Corporate
Event Planning, along with marketing, printing and enterprise level sales
experience to develop a tool that is unparalleled in planning guidance
and local resource research.
Our planners are designed to become
a bride's companion for the entirety of her planning, and the website
a constantly updated companion product. We publish 2 issues
annually, a winter/spring issue and summer/fall issue. We
promote the guide at local bridal fairs, bridal salons, jewelry
stores, churches and market ourselves rigorously to the community.
Our rates are extremely reasonable
and much less than newspaper or media. Our objective is to serve
brides and professionals in regional specific target areas. Your
advertising dollars stay in your area and work harder for you!
We have directory listings starting
at $190 per year, 1/4, 1/2 and full page opportunities, as well as
premier spots on centerfold/2 page spreads, front and back covers and
full website packages as well.
