Congrats!
The way I did it after guest list and STD, was my photographer, DJ, Video, and dress.
I'm still looking for flowers and the rest...
I wasn't rushing the whole dress experience, i finallysaid yes on Sunday (1st time going to try on dresses) and they told me the dress will be in probably april/ may..sooo I suggest you look @ dresses cus apparently they take long!
Good luck :)

I would focus on photo, video, dress and hotel block for now.
After that I'd work on florist, music and invites.
Let us know if you have any questions.

Re: Officially a 2012 Bride!
I did RH, Church & Band at the same time. I wanted a certain band, so I needed to make sure they were available.
Then I did photograther/videographer, and I'm getting my dress this month. I would really start looking for a dress ASAP, the dress shops keep freaking me out saying that if I don't make a decision soon, it won't be in by my July 29th wedding.
IMO, florist, MU, Hair, Invitations are not a priority. You can find any vendor who does that.
Remember, a photographer, band/dj can only do one wedding a time. The other vendors (typically florist, invites, etc.) can do multiple weddings on the same date.
