Being a blogger can sometimes be a lonely life - I remember sending out that first post into the void, wondering if anyone would ever read it (yay, they did!), and some days it still feels a little like I'm talking to myself, even if the stats tell me that thousands of you are sharing your wedding planning journey with me. The point is, I love feedback, and I so appreciate the feedback we get on a regular basis - comments, Facebook likes and shares, emails, tweets, pins and repins - all of it really makes my job worthwhile. But every year I ask you, the lovely SBB readers (whether you're a bride, a groom, a wedding pro or just a lover of all things pretty), to give us some more detailed feedback - after all, it's really important that this is a blog that you love, that it serves you in what you are trying to achieve, and that it feels a little like your home on the internet. To keep that on track, I've put together a reader survey and I would love it so much if you would take a few minutes to complete it! It's super simple, and better yet, one lucky respondent will win themselves a $50 Amazon voucher. In the past, reader surveys have genuinely helped to shape SBB's design and direction (for example, we introduced more real weddings to our schedule, as well as regular bridal fashion and bridal shower features), and I'm so looking forward to hearing what you have to say - constructive criticism is welcome!

To be included in the voucher draw, just leave your name and email address at the end of the survey (you can skip this if you'd prefer to stay anonymous). The survey will be open until 15 October, when we'll announce the winner on the SBB Facebook page.
