the good photogs book up really fast. I know my photog already has like 30 weddings booked for 2009 so I would find which ones you are interested in and call to see if they have your date available

What have you booked yet?

It's not too late...but you should certainly start setting up some appointments and look around

If it makes you feel a little better, we got all our vendors in 4-5 months. We got engage in May-06 but didn't start planning until April of 07. Everything is doable in short period of time, you just need to very careful especially when signing a contract. Don't feel rush - read it thoroughly and don't forget to bargain...hey if you don't ask, you'll not getting it!!!

Goodluck!!

The only vendors I have booked r the hall & photographer. I haven't run into very many videographers. dj's, limo''s, etc that don't have availability and I only have 4 months left to go.
