Ok ladies... My fiance and I are planning on the three year engagement and well, you know the excitment of getting engaged and thinking about things... Well, when i try even bringing up the idea of a wedding everyone is like, 'well your not getting married until 2010!' Especially one person in particular.. his mother! not trying to bash on her she is a very nice woman and all it just certain things that she says or has to say just gets under my skin a little bit! I made it clear that e would love to have a beach wedding, I actually have my heart set on it and she says well you have to consider your guests and the weather and your hair... well, here is my point it is a little aggrivating and i just want to hear what anyone else has to say maybe to help me out a little bit. Please Help!

Re: Is It Too Soon?
i got engaged on 7/16/06 - booked the hall in november of 06 for a 11/27/09 wedding. and damn glad i did b/c prices only go UP. too bad what other people thing. if they are so concerned then tell them to open up their pockets and write checks so you can do it earlier lol. it sounds mean to say but to bad for them. LOL. i get slack all the time and the best part is that my friend who hasn't had a serious boyfriend or anything and is currently single has the most to say. every one has something to say - relax do it on your time. they will talk no matter what but do your best not to let it get to you - i know it's tough. but they don't know what's in your pockets. i already know the dress i want and the dj i want. didn't order or book but i have BOOKS and notes. take your time & be prepared. do what makes you and your fiance happy.

Re: Is It Too Soon?
I think a lot of people will tell you (us) it's too soon, that is why I haven't told anyone except obviously FH (who thinks I'm exaggerating looking into things so early) and my FSIL who is having as much fun as I am!
Also my wedding will be in Greece and brides start planning about a year in advance, at the earliest I want to have everything planned a year before, never mind start then!!!
I think you should do what you feel like, like the other girls said, you could go round places with a friend and not involve a lot of people at this stage. At least you'd avoid unnecessary comments...

Re: Is It Too Soon?
Hi I am an 09ner and my be changing the date to 2010. I really want certain things and there are only certain things you can cut corners on!!!! So I may be switching the date to early 2010, March. I have heard things from people like you are going to wait til then, why sooo long, your not getting younger, don't you want to have kids. But there are some saying good for you, you have to do what you have to do, your being smart about and all this other stuff. The good out weighs the bad and you have to do what you have to do!!!! Don't worry about anyone else. I am already starting to look at places to see what is out there and getting all of my information together. Good luck!!!!!
