New Hampshire Magazine’s Bride

New Hampshire Wedding Venues, Vendors, Ideas and Inspiration

Planning a wedding in New Hampshire? You’ve come to the right place! New Hampshire Magazine’s Bride is a semi-annual magazine perfect for those planning a NH wedding or rehearsal dinner. Bride is published twice a year, in spring and fall.

After searching the Granite State, our editors have gathered some of the most beautiful and interesting bridal accoutrements New Hampshire has to offer – jewelry, dresses, flowers and more. Each issue also includes a hand-selected, comprehensive list of New Hampshire’s best reception sites, with all the contact information you’ll need.

From the editor

I’m used to writing about bouquets and your special days, but this season I got to be part of one. And not just any wedding. I got to taste and see the world I love and know so well through my sister’s eyes as her bridesmaid. It was a gift to walk alongside her through every phase of the “yes to ‘I do’” journey and be there for every detail and decision, just like we do for you. 

Did I unapologetically reference this magazine for wisdom on what to tip vendors (budgeting feature in the Fall/Winter 2024 issue) and where to dine out in North Conway for her “Last Trail before the Veil” bachelorette weekend (bachelorette itineraries in the Spring/Summer 2026 issue)? You bet. 

I want to pause amid the blessed chaos to say the same thing I told my sister—it’s our greatest joy to be your go-to wedding advisor and trusted connector. 

While I can’t have you over for tea or mimosas to share our expertise with you in person as I wish I could, consider our magazine a living conversation where we answer your questions—even the ones you haven’t thought to ask—and offer plenty of local inspiration and expert advice. And this issue is no exception. In it, you’ll find trendy things we love (12), real New Hampshire weddings (27), a list of mobile dessert options your sweet tooth will love (40), tips from industry pros on how to curate your color palette (48), and a styled barn shoot at Saltonstall Farm (56). We’re also elated to announce the official launch of the Granite State Wedding Network (66)—it’s our turn to put a ring on it. Playing matchmaker between you and our state’s most sought-after vendors gives us the same butterflies you get on your wedding day. 

We want to get lost in the details with you, but we also want to make sure you don’t lose the plot along the way—your wedding day is about you and your spouse. Your day is yours. You make it happen the way YOU want and dream it to be. Just promise to throw the bouquet our way at the end of the night.

Until next time …

Upcoming Events

House Rules – Tuesday, November 17th, 6PM-10PM

Wellinghall Farm, Danville, NH

New England creatives, it’s your turn to be the main event.

We’re taking over Wellinghall Farm for a night that’s part elevated house party, part creative playground, and absolutely nothing like your typical industry event.

Your ticket gets you:

Nostalgic bites, playful sips, and a complimentary drink ticket.

Interactive experiences designed to spark curiosity, conversation, and a little creative chaos.

A chance to reconnect with old friends, make some new ones, and celebrate the creative community that makes this industry what it is.

A few things we’re keeping to ourselves until you walk through the door.

THE DRESS CODE: MAIN CHARACTER ENERGY.

Consider this your permission slip to have a little fun with fashion.

Pull out that incredible piece that’s been waiting for its own moment, experiment with a side of your style you’ve never explored, or show up as the most unapologetic version of yourself.

Whether you’re a maximalist at heart, a minimalist with an edge, or someone ready to try on an entirely new fashion personality, this is your chance to go for it.

For once, you’re not behind the scenes—it’s your turn for the spotlight.
