12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

It's actually 11 months and 2 weeks - i think this is a PERFECT amount of time to be engaged and comfortably plan a wedding... but i have a friend that thinks it's rushing. Any thoughts??

It's definitely enough time. My friends just got engaged and is planning a wedding for Labor Day weekend, less than a yar away. And she's doing it from Kentucky!

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

If I had the money, I could plan a wedding in a month. The internet makes it so easy for you to find everything you need. One year is a perfect amount of time. I have one year and seven months and it is too long, but I need to save to buy some things for the wedding.

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

It better be because I have less than that!! LOL

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

absolutely ! you can plan it in a month if you have the money !!

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

absolutely.....I got engaged 10/30 and my wedding is 8/13/05....plenty of time....just be careful with your wedding gown...you'll want to order ASAP. Mine will take 6-9 months to come in (obviously cutting it a little close)

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

Definitely! I have a friend that planned hers in 11 months and another that planned hers in 6 months.

I got engaged september 25th and my wedding is for september 24th 2005...its plenty of time, i have everything done (except those i cant do till later, invites..etc). I know a friend who planned it in 6 months..and my one sister planned a full wedding in 4 months! If you wait a long time, most of the time is spent waiting...so i dont think its rushing at all!

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

you'll be fine. I was engaged for a year before we really started planning - i don't think i would have wanted to really start any sooner. You should have more options for a fall wedding... i don't think vendors books as fast from Nov - April as they do from like May - October :)

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

its plenty of time, just get your place, that is most important, then you can do everything else. honestly i will be enaged a yr in feb i have barely done anything I have about 8 1/2 months to go. you have time but start soon. :)

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

we planned it in 8 months. we were engaged in june 2003 but started planning this past january b/c i was student teaching. sometimes too long and you start to second guess everything.

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

Definitely!! I think 3 is suffiicient. I wish my wedding was sooner!!

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

you have enough time, you just have to get on the ball and start checking vendors
Good luck

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

Most definitely.!!!!

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

I did it in 7 months. Once you find the location, start looking for a dress immediately. The rest is not as urgent.

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

you have more than enough time

Re: 12 months long enough to plan a wedding?

Sure, my wedding was planned in 10 months
