Bridal edition hits shelves next week

I was talking with a community member about our upcoming bridal edition, and they asked if it would be coming out in the summer.

Oh no no. We’re presenting you with this little delight right now, starting the year off right with this favorite issue.

Next week Franklin Living will release and will feature our special bridal section and other wedding-related stories. We have some great recipes to share, a hidden gem of a venue to spotlight and love stories that will just knock your socks off.

I know my own wedding day is one I will never forget. It was beautiful, full of joy, spent with family, friends and, most importantly, the love of my life.

This is the second bridal edition we have created during my tenure with the Franklin County Times, and I hope you’ll enjoy leafing through each page. We’re proud to make the bridal edition part of our annual rotation of Franklin Living themes.

Within the pages of this issue, you will meet four newlywed couples and share in their stories of love and devotion; tour the gorgeous Hurricane Creek Lodge; get tips on recipes and table-settings for an elegant bridal shower or tea; swoon over the everlasting love of several Franklin couples who have celebrated their golden anniversaries; and find all of our usual departments, too, like Faces of Franklin County and our Faith and Money Matters columns.

If you subscribe – and if you don’t, you really should – to the Franklin County Times, you’ll find the magazine inserted in your newspaper next week. But if you don’t subscribe or you need an extra copy to share with family and friends, you can stop by our office to pick one up.

I hope you will treasure this very special edition. I know I do.
