About Us
Over 20 years of industry experience and 8 years as the largest and longest running magazine of its kind.
In October 2001, QBM, Inc., the publishers of Quinceañera & Bride Magazine, responded to an overwhelming need for a premium quality magazine and website dedicated to providing ideas and inspiration for quinceañeras and brides. It has become the leading source of trustworthy information and top-notch referrals to quinceañeras, brides and their families as they approach one of the most important days in their lives. For the past eight years we have commited to making a lasting impact on the community, by supporting family traditions and values.
Our distribution is un-matched, printing 120,000 copies a year in over 1000 strategic distribution points is part of the reason our magazine continues to be so successful. With the integration of our very own TV Show, Expo, and Website, we create a direct link between professionals and our readers.
About the Publisher
Raul Juarez began his career in the quinceañera and bridal industry at the age of 13 as he worked along side his father as a videographer for several years. After graduating from Memorial High School in 1992, he continued working as a professional videographer and helped increase his fathers business by creating a strategic marketing campaign that would take the family business to the next level. Once the business had successfully established its name as one of the most reputable and fastest-growing companies in Houston, he followed his dream of joining the military.
Raul Juarez served ten years in the United States Marine Corps Reserves, while attending college at the same time. He graduated from the University of Houston in 1996 with a Criminal Justice Degree, as well as graduating top of his class from the Police Academy. Soon after he began a career in Law Enforcement serving as a Harris County Deputy Constable.
Years later he realized there was a demand for an informative magazine that would cater to quinceañeras and brides. Using his knowledge and expertise, he created a valuable tool for both event professionals and his readers. In 2001, the first ever publication for quinceañeras and brides in Houston was introduced. QBM, Inc. has since grown to a multi-media company, offering optimum visibility by providing TV shows, Expos, and Website.
No other publication of its kind can claim to do the same.
