The Magazine is Here!!! + Party Dress Contest

At 3pm on the dot yesterday, the FedEx man pulled up and four excited girls ran out to meet him.  The magazine had arrived!  We filmed the whole thing, but are too giddy and embarrassed to post it.  I think the FedEx guy felt like a superstar, as we basically tried to climb in his truck.  Needless to say, we love it!  The cover is unreal.  It's so beautiful we were all officially distracted from work after its arrival.  Today at 5:30pm EST, the cover (and the incredible photographer behind it) will be revealed here on the blog.  If you're in Atlanta tonight, you'll get to see it in person!

We're all road-tripping to Hotlanta early this morning for our launch party tonight at Bridal Bar.  We hope you'll join us to celebrate an exciting year and the release of this second issue.  I'm pretty excited that we'll all have our men in tow - Emily's John, Katharine's Kyle and Ari. (Whitney is bringing her awesome mom!)  And I, naturally, have a few tricks up my sleeve for the party.  Y'all know I love surprises.

If you haven't RSVP'd yet, do so here.  And if you don't have your party dress yet, get on it! 

CONTEST: Guess which one of us (Lara, Katharine, Whitney, Emily) is wearing each of the dresses above to the party tonight and win a copy of the magazine, a box of Moonpies, and a copy of the hilarious book, Butter My Butt and Call Me a Biscuit.  Contest ends today at 5:30pm EST.

See y'all tonight!
