The current economic situation has affected even the "recession-proof" wedding industry.Today's Bride is comparison shopping and deal-seeking, especially when it comes to her wedding / reception venue. Alchemis bridal booklet [Alchemi Design & Publications], LLP provides creative marketing strategies for wedding venues to showcase their business and facilities to brides and is winning awards for the high-end brochures produced for their clients.

Alchemi's bridal booklets are produced at no cost to the venue because they are financed through advertisements purchased by their preferred vendors. Alchemi Design's Principals Meagan Connolly and Cink DeVeas describe this publication format as a "win-win situation", especially in today's economy, for both wedding venues and their vendors. The end product is a high-end brochure which delivers both the venue and vendor's information directly into the hands of their target audience, giving them a competitive edge in the huge world of wedding sales. Photographer and frequent bridal book advertiser David Hartcorn says "This is the only bridal advertising I will do because it targets the bride directly."

One of the award winning publications belongs to the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club whose book has won a prestigious MarCom Award. The 24 page bridal book, featuring beautiful wedding photography at the venue, won the Platinum Award for outstanding design in the category of Special Events Marketing."We were thrilled to win this award with Alchemi Design & Publications and wish to thank the contributing photographers and all our wedding vendors who supported us with this effort," says Erin Janes, Director of Wedding Services for the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club.

The Beach Club and Alchemi Design are currently collaborating on the venue's third edition.

Alchemi Design & Publications also won the Communicator Awards for Distinction for the Historic Inns of Annapolis' first bridal book. Todd Unger, Director of Sales and Marketing for the Historic Inns of Annapolis said "Alchemi has an in-depth understanding of the wedding industry and how we should market our hotels to the brides.
