Get Married Announces a New National Wedding Magazine, Solidifying Its
Position as the Most Comprehensive, Integrated Wedding Resource for Brides

Tagged as the 'new shopping & trend guide for the savvy bride,' Get Married
magazine offers a fresh perspective to wedding planning in a free, glossy
publication

ATLANTA, May 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Get Married, the only multi-channeled wedding
planning resource with platforms online and on television every weekday,
announces today a third platform - a new, glossy national wedding magazine -
making it the most comprehensive and integrated wedding resource. Get Married
magazine is scheduled to publish its first issue October 2009. Tagged as a
"new shopping & trend guide for the savvy bride," Get Married magazine extends
the brand loyalty of Get Married's Lifetime Television show viewers and
GetMarried.com users who crave unique and integrated content. This third
platform brings a tactile and fresh experience to a new generation of brides
who aspire to discover new inspirations on TV, online and in print.

"Get Married magazine rounds out our truly integrated approach to wedding
planning, and will continue to capture the excitement of brides who watch,
surf and read their way through designing every moment of their wedding
celebration," said Stacie Francombe, founder and president of Get Married and
GetMarried.com. "Get Married magazine will reinterpret the rules and
translate the latest wedding trends, while offering a new perspective in an
uplifting, edgy voice for creatively-innovative and inspirationally-driven
brides."

Former skirt! magazine editor Stephanie Davis, who has written for GQ, Self,
Brides and Gourmet, is the executive editor of Get Married magazine,
spearheading the editorial, creative and integration with its show on Lifetime
Television and with GetMarried.com. She is working closely with Jill Meister,
the editor-in-chief of GetMarried.com and former CBS Early Show producer.
Editorial deadline is August 16, 2009, and ideas should be submitted to
Stephanie.Davis@GetMarried.com.

In addition to offering a platform for the most sought-after wedding experts
to share tips and ideas, Get Married magazine offers brides choices and
guidance, and the first several issues will be distributed to approximately
300,000 brides. With smarter editorializing, Get Married magazine fills a
void in the marketplace, combining planning with shopping, which is often a
simultaneous process for brides. According to Magazine Publishers of
America's 2008 Survey, magazine readership is growing. In fact, 85 percent of
Americans read magazines, and readership grew during the last five years, with
audience growth more than all other media except the internet. Likewise, the
average number of issues read by 25-34 year olds has increased 11.5 percent
since 2004, an important factor for Get Married's target demographic.

While brides get a glossy and bound new bridal magazine semi-annually to
explore every facet of their wedding planning, advertisers who are looking to
maximize dollars and increase reach among a highly-engaged audience of brides
can garner exposure across Get Married's three media platforms - TV, online
and print. With 96 pages in the first few issues including a chic assortment
of trends and inspirations, limited advertising opportunities are initially
available in the 8" x 10.5" publication. Advertising deadline is September 1,
2009. For more information about advertising, contact MagSales@GetMarried.com
or call 877.848.0331.

Get Married magazine will grow its audience in this tough economy with the
first few issues being free for brides, retailers, wedding and industry
professionals, and bridal show and event producers through direct mail,
signing up for a single copy, or in bulk on GetMarried.com, or at select local
retailers and events.

For more information on how to receive a single free copy or in bulk, please
