How far ahead did you book your reception location?

Original post by JavyL008

I just got engaged about 3 weeks ago and am aiming for an October '08 wedding and I know that due to the high volume of weddings out here that I need to book a place soon. I noticed that a lot of you other '08 brides have booked. How far ahead did you book? I guess you might say I'm kinda stressing already....

If you have a certain place in mind you may not be in luck. But if you are open to venue's I am sure you will luck out and get a price cheaper than someone who has booked very early. Because as much as a bride does not want to think of her wedding day as a business, but the catering halls do. So the later you go, the more they are willing to work with you since they want all their days booked up, and if that means giving you a better price, rather than making no money, what do you think.
This is my experience. Girls corect me if i am wrong.
Good luck though, you may find an amazing venue at a awesome price!
