Submission Guidelines for Photographers, Planners & Publicists

At Brides of 30A, we are honored to feature exceptional weddings and the creative teams behind them. To ensure a respectful and collaborative publishing process, we require that all submissions adhere to the following guidelines.

All weddings submitted for consideration must have explicit permission from the photographer. The photographer is the copyright holder of the images and must approve their use for editorial publication on Brides of 30A. If you are a planner, publicist, or vendor submitting on behalf of a client, it is your responsibility to confirm that this permission has been granted prior to submission.

We also strongly encourage clear communication among all parties involved—including the photographer, planner, and any representing publicist—to avoid conflicts regarding publication timing, exclusivity, or prior agreements with other media outlets. Brides of 30A respects existing publication arrangements and will gladly coordinate scheduling when needed.

By submitting a wedding, you confirm that:

• The photographer has approved the use of all submitted images

• You have the authority to share the wedding for editorial consideration

• There are no conflicting exclusivity agreements, or they have been disclosed

Submissions that do not meet these requirements may be declined or removed.

Please note that submission does not guarantee publication. Each wedding is carefully reviewed through our editorial approval process to ensure it aligns with the aesthetic, quality, and overall standards of Brides of 30A. This allows us to maintain a cohesive and elevated experience for our audience while thoughtfully showcasing the work of our contributing creatives.
