We are dedicated to serving couples in North Carolina and surrounding states with a unique, bi-annual magazine.

North Carolina Bridal Magazine showcases talented, inspiring professionals to assist you in planning your special day. We have vendors from venues, gowns, makeup and hair, florist, planners, caterers, photographers and everything in-between. We feature real wedding stories, proposals, blogs, articles and much more, so subscribing to our magazine will make it a little easier for you to have that extra inspiration for your magical day! 

NCBM began in 2019; publisher Crystal Pressley’s love and passion for the wedding Industry led her to create this state-wide resource for brides of all budget sizes and styles. “I saw so many other bridal magazines open but then close within months of opening because they were only published with the idea of making money. At NCBM, our goal is to help local businesses grow and become the the most trusted resource for couples looking to get married in NC.”

We initially reached our target audience primarily through regional bridal shows. With distribution options changing rapidly, we have expanded our reach to other high traffic areas such as hotels, visitors centers, chambers of commerce, and more. Our goal is to connect brides and vendors from across the state to make wedding days special and smooth and help grow the North Carolina Wedding Industry.
