What’s new? The answer is, “Almost everything.” After five years in print and online, it’s not uncommon for a publication to revamp it’s look, feel, and style. Heading into our sixth year in publication, we asked ourselves how we could make Wedding Planner Magazine even better. The answer is right here in your hands. It all began with our second reader survey. We knew we couldn’t revamp without your input, so we asked you question after question. We are grateful for the hundreds of readers who took the time to complete the survey and openly and honestly share their likes and dislikes as well as their ideas for improvement. We diligently combed through the results looking for commonalities in your responses so we could make changes you want. That’s why, beginning with this issue, you’ll notice many improvements, starting with readability. We changed the font and increased its size to assure an easier read. We also altered the layout for a more modern, crisp look. But that’s just the frosting. In terms of content, you’ll note that we’ve added a “Seasoned Professionals” column and, enhanced our Real Wedding content. To find out more about what’s new and different, see the Reader Survey article on p 13.And while we’re on the subject of surveys, you’ll note that we approached our annual Color Trends article in a similar fashion. We turned the tables and made you the pros by conducting another survey and asking you for your color trend ideas and creativity. The results were rewarding.We hope you enjoy our new look. Please let us know what you think by contacting us at the emails below. Thank you for being a Wedding Planner Magazine reader!Beth, Nancy, and David
