    You should decide what kind of a wedding you want first of all. Do you want a big family wedding where everyone can attend or would you prefer to have a smaller wedding? Location will be the best way for you to control the number of people coming. Once you've decided where it will be you'll need to first get a grip on the budget by doing research for what things cost and looking into your finances. Then you can decide on a date and find your venue for reception and ceremony. You will definitely need to enlist the help of those that love you and also do lots and lots of research. You shouldn't rely just on the vendors suggested by the wedding websites, there are tons of other folks out there many of which will be able to work with smaller budgets than the ones suggested by the knott.
    I personally made one trip to meet with the vendors that were most crucial to me. I suggest you do that if you can afford to because then you'll have more peace of mind about the most important aspects of your day.

    It's very nice to meet you!

     i think i having finnaly made my decesion but it still up in the air. the easier thing is that it only me friends that are in the military all of our family will still be in the same plave for the next three years.but thank you for all your advice. I was thinking more for the save the date thing for them to respond if they want to come i know that they cant say yes i will be there but then can say if they are going to try and be there that all i was hoping for. but thank you for the advice anyway
