Get Married Launches Magazine
Every day we hear how print media are closing operations and consolidating all content to the Web, but here’s a reverse situation… Get Married, the multi-channeled wedding planning resource with platforms online and on television every weekday, announces a third platform – a new, glossy national wedding magazine launching this October. Just goes to prove that love endures all – even a lousy economy.
