My fiance and I just got engaged two weeks ago. Everyone keeps asking me if we've set a date yet. I always knew I wanted a least a year engagement, but the venue that i have my heart set on is booked for October 2011. I really want to get married in either October or June. I've started looking at dates and I really like 6/16/2012. A lot of my friends and my mom are telling that seems too long to wait. My mom seems to think dragging it out that long can cause more stress. My thinking is that I'd like to book my venue and set a date and then pause on wedding planning. I'd like to take the fall and winter months to focus on looking for and buy a house, then pick up wedding planning in the Spring. What are your thoughts?
Thanks!!
