Here's what to do:
  • Choose about 20 professional photos that tell the story of your wedding day. Please keep in mind that we want to see detail images that show off your wedding style (your cake, bouquet, escort card display, favors, etc.) with a mix of the key moments from the day. And don’t forget a few couple shots of you and your spouse and wedding party!
  • You or your photographer can send color photocopies or scans of your professional wedding photos with a printed contact sheet to the address below:
    (name of your region) Real Weddings
    The Knot, inc.

    OR
  • Email your photos to us at photos@theknot.com in one of the following formats:
    1. JPEG (.jpg) OR
    2. a link to your profile where you've posted images on The Knot OR
    3. a link to your photographer's website, with related passwords to your photos
  • Include the following info in the body of the email:
    1. Your wedding photographer's name, phone number, and website address
    2. Your names, phone numbers, and email addresses
    3. Day, month, year, city, state, and location of your ceremony and reception
    4. Any other details you'd like us to know about your wedding!


Due to the high volume of submission, we will contact you only if we plan to use your pictures, and cannot guarantee return of photocopies. Weddings will be kept on file for one year from the wedding date.

It was stated a few months ago that all submissions for Real Weddings were accepted for feature on the website. Did they change this? Why? It's so disappointing! These changes to this site are horrible...next thing you know it'll be a paysite.

Real brides: don't waste your time, it's all about how much $ you are worth. Believe me, I know some of the featured brides and this entire website is about $~sorry

It would be nice if they sent a response email that said they're inbox was full until further notice or whatever because it does take a lot of time to compile the pics and info. Mine was a "delivery failure" too
