I dont have one, but I am the kind of person that wants everything to be booked! I am crazy when it comes to planning. I told my mother and FH I would take a break for now.

It looks good! I'm the type of person that likes to get things done so I have a lot I want to try to accomplish this year. I will most likely try to get a lot done over the summer when I don't have work.

My timeline basically looks like yours. I want to get everything booked this year. I really just want to use next year for the small details and paying everything off.

I agree I want everything booked (with maybe exception of honeymoon and tuxes) this year.

I don't have a set timeline but I have an idea of how when I want to do certain things:

February 11
Book a venue!! (I'm close!)

March-April 11
Photographer
Band
Lighting
Florist

May-July 11
Wedding Dress
Bridesmaid dresses
Pick bouquets
Bridal accessories/shoes

August- December 11
Beauty trials
Invitations
Favors

Then leave 2012 for details and place cards etc.

Gaaah I'm so excited!! hehehe
