Happy Tuesday! Today, I’m so excited to share with you our next giveaway. Ever since our magazine has gone print, we’ve been a huge advocate for anything print. When you see things in print, it feels more real, emotional and tangible. And it instantly becomes this heirloom that you hope to pass down to future generations. And today, we’ve teamed up with MILK Books to give one lucky couple an opportunity to have their wedding images printed and made into a book. We’re so excited. Keep on reading and find out why MILK is so great and read how you can enter TO WIN a book of your very own. Good Luck!

WHAT OTHER BRIDES ARE SAYING ABOUT MILK PHOTO BOOKS
“Wow! What can I say. I have just received my MILK Photo Book wedding album and it is absolutely stunning. Excellent service from start to finish. Quick dispatch, great value delivery and a stunning keepsake.” – Karen Scott Liverpool, United Kingdom

ADVICE TO COUPLES
“Yes, you can store your images ‘in the cloud’ or have five backups of every photo you’ve ever taken, but what about preservation after you’re gone? Do you hand your laptops down to your grandchildren to store away in a memory box and power up when they’re feeling nostalgic? That is, of course, if you remember to include all your passwords in your last will and testament! What’s missing is that tangible experience. That heirloom or special keepsake that will bring back memories or tell your story. Eventually technology will surpass us and our files will disappear into the ether, leaving no trace of us ever really living, ever getting married, having children, turning 80 or passing away.As photographers we want to capture and preserve our clients’ memories. A wedding book or album isn’t an investment in an item, it’s an investment in your existence, your memory, your story, future children, grandchildren and every generation that follows after that. “ By Tania Eastlake from Sadie and Co
I definitely agree with this. Legacy and history is one the biggest reasons why Utterly Engaged decided to do a print magazine. I highly encourage every bride to preserve life’s special moments in a beautiful and unique way. I would hate to have it buried in a sea of files and folders on the computer and/or your phone and have it be forgotten. So don’t let this happen to you too. This is such a good giveaway so I really hope you enter, to get a chance to win! It’s one giveaway that we know you’ll cherish forever!
