Re: how far along are you in planning?
I started the beg of this year booking stuff but i really spread things out because we have a 2 year engagement which has been great is many ways and not so great in others...
the first thing we booked was our venue followed by dj and then photo next is limo which i have set up in dec and then ill do flowers then all the little stuff follows that.. ohh WAIT honeymoon that i have to wait til a year away to book because no rates are avail for it until then
dont worry people plan their wedding in less thena year you'll be find no stress!
