Age Requirement

Mezzohead Media takes online safety very seriously. For this reason, you must be 16 years or older to participate in the application. You may not seek to exploit or harm children by exposing them to inappropriate content, asking for personally identifiable information or otherwise.

Register One Username

Due to the nature of this platform, you may not create more than one username. It is confusing to other members and does not help in building a trustworthy community.

Post a Message Only Once

Please do not post the same message more than once. That encourages good manners online and the elimination of duplicate content.

External Link Accessibility

All posted external links must be publicly accessible. Links should not lead users to another registration screen or form of sign up unless the sign-up screen contains the entire additional information intended in the original post. Violation of this rule may result in membership suspension and/or termination.

Photo Credit

We understand the importance credibility and giving credit where credit is due.  Giving a photo credit (or image credit) is absolutely essential when using those all important photos that every blog post should include.  Whenever you upload an image to a tip, a Photo Credit field appears and is required.  If there are additional credits to be given for a photo (ei - floral design, stationery, styling, etc.), we advise that you provide that information concisely in the tip text area or supplementary hyperlink.

All Posts Are Subject to Review

While we do not review all material posted and are under no obligation to do so, we reserve the right to accept, reject or remove any postings, including those that are off-subject, not in English or that contain personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity, impersonations, advertising or that violate the Newlybride.com’s Rules of Etiquette, Terms of Use or Privacy Policy.

English Language

All public postings are to be made in English.

Truthful and Accurate Information

Please only post content that is truthful, accurate and not misleading. You may not post material that impersonates or misrepresents your connection to any other entity or person or otherwise manipulates headers or identifiers to disguise the origin of the content.

Personal Information

For the safety and privacy of Newlybride.com members, please do not post or solicit personal information such as private addresses, social security numbers, medical, financial, license plates, or any other private information about yourself and others. If you post a photo, or comment that includes the name or image of someone other than yourself, you must have permission of that person to post to this page. That includes permission of the parent or legal guardian of any child that may be included. In addition, when posting a photo, you must provide photo credit to the individual who created the original content.

No Obscene or Hateful Language

Due to the intention of this platform, Mezzohead Media does not allow obscene, hateful, profane, racist, discriminatory, sexually explicit, pornographic, offensive or otherwise objectionable language or material in any of our online forums. Further, you may not harass, insult, defame, libel, slander, stalk, abuse, threaten or invade the privacy of another person. You may not post content that disparages, criticizes, belittles, parodies or otherwise portrays in a negative light any person appearing in the content. We suggest you discontinue any conversation that makes you uncomfortable and report your concerns to us at support@newlybride.com.

No Solicitations or Advertisements

You may not post any content for commercial purposes (e.g. offering for sale any products or services). Such posts add to clutter and devalue conversations and tips. This includes advertisements for your business, solicitations for a charity, conducting raffles or contests, displaying sponsorship banners, solicitation of goods or services and/or spam. Further, you may not solicit funds, advertisers or sponsors. You may not promote a "pyramid" or similar scheme. Unfortunately, it is impossible to verify the validity of each and every organization that solicits donations; therefore, in an effort to protect Newlybride.com members from fraud, we must prohibit solicitations for charities as well.
