Bedford & New Canaan Magazine Stay connected with the people and places in our area! Always local. Always positive. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Our motto is ‘Always Local. And it’s working!

Bedford & New Canaan Magazine is now welcomed into over 25,000 homes and businesses in Armonk, Bedford, Bedford Hills, Katonah, Mt Kisco, Pound Ridge, Pleasantville, North Salem, South Salem, Waccabuc, NY, and New Canaan and Darien, CT. It’s been two years since our first issue of Bedford & New Canaan Magazine. We acquired the 16-year old ‘Bedford Magazine’ and have more than tripled the distribut

ion, so that we now mail to more than 25,000 households. While we kept ‘Bedford’ in the name and simply added the ‘& New Canaan’, we now mail to a cross-border community that includes every house in Armonk, Bedford, Pound Ridge and Waccabuc, every house in New Canaan, and the most affluent households in Bedford Hills, Mt. Kisco, Pleasantville, Katonah, North Salem, South Salem and Darien. No other publication can guarantee blanket delivery to this extremely affluent audience. Always Positive.’, and our rather basic formula is to do insightful biographies on notable locals, get inside some of the most impressive and important residences in the area, highlight great local charities, keep up to speed on local goings on, and feature places and things that are…feature-worthy. We work hard…to be ‘the talk of the town’. We’re up from the 60 or so pages in the old Bedford Magazine, to the 164 pages in this B&NC Mag September/October issue. And, most important, our independent research proves that you - the B&NC Mag readership - are paying attention. We’re most proud that our readers spend an average of over an hour with each issue! We boast about being the last magazine on every family’s coffee table! We’re also building-out our digital presence. With over 12,000 actively engaged followers, is the #1 locally-focused Instagram in the area. Our ‘Calendar’, available at our bedfordnewcanaanmag.com website, has become a ‘go to’ source for info on events in and around the community. And we’re developing a substantial email database, and will be sending e-announcements to those who want to go on our website and subscribe. It’s two years since we married all the towns in the B&NC Mag readership together, and since we signed on to be your trusted source for everything local and positive. …It’s been our honor and privilege. Truly Yours,


Casey Kaplan

“I feel like we had magical Stardust sprinkled on us “ said Michael 🏰✨

Alex Bradsell and Michael Rubertone were married on May 5, 2023, in front of about 150 of their friends and families. The two met in Orlando working for Disney, and everything else just fell into place time after time. Coincidentally, both had family in New York, but their love for Orlando ultimately led to their decision to tie the knot with everyone there!

Read more about this happily ever after on page 58 of our newest issue. “It’s like a dream come true” Alex exclaimed!

Sabbath is especially serene, and is gifted in the art of reading another person. She can immediately take a measure of posture, gate, hair and skin, breath, visual clarity, and a myriad of other clues as a key part of informing her diagnosis and treatment, but is just as quick to explain she’s practicing medicine, and that her Eastern or Chinese methods and practices are just as scientific as, and can often be a valuable alternative to, Western medicine.
