You are way ahead of the game, you'll be fine. I would recommend booking the photographer and the DJ sooner than later, esp if you really have one in mind. The flowers you can wait... 6-8 months before the wedding is what I hear...

Re: How far........

I did my photographer and DJ a year in advance. The flowers I did about 8 months in advanced.

If you really want to look now you can. Some photographers/DJ's can book way in advanced. Plus if you like me - I must have met 500 photographers before I found one I liked. I thought DH was going to kill me haha

Re: How far........

We booked all our major vendors right away so we made sure we can get who we want. The night we met with Thomas Paul, there was another couple there that wanted him for the same date!!

Luckily since I called him before they did, he let us have the date. We also met with Duet even though we didn't go with them, but they only had 1 team left for our date and it was over a year in advance
