Editorial Policy (Incl. Social Media)
Classic Bride blog is written and edited by Sarah Darcy. In addition to editing and reviewing all editorial content, I also screen applications for sponsors. The integrity of Classic Bride blog is paramount so I only accept sponsorship requests from companies that I believe compliment the aesthetic of Classic Bride blog. Please know I clearly identify sponsored posts on the site and I only promote brands and products that I approve of.
To be clear, any time I accept money for promoting a product or vendor, it is fully disclosed. All sponsored posts are clearly noted within the blog post. Banner advertisements (in the right sidebar and between blog posts) are labeled as “sponsored.”
Sponsorship does not in any way guarantee editorial coverage, and sponsors do not receive any preference with regard to editorial consideration.
