question

How far in advance did everyone book their vendors, like photography, ceremony and reception.
Thanks!

    I booked my venue about a year in advance and DJ about 10 months.  That's all I really had to book, everything else is included with the venue.  

    What are you looking at?
    We had our dream wedding at Mirage on May 3, 2014!

    If you're doing photography with a third party, and on a Friday or Saturday evening, you should try to book at least a year in advance because they good ones actually do book up that early.  Good hair and makeup aren't too far behind them.  The rest you can generally get away with waiting longer but once you have a venue locked down might as well get it all out of the way.

    I booked our majors (ie venue, photographer and DJ) 18 months out. Our venue was booking that far out so I figured I would do it all at once.

    We did all of our stuff about a year in advance, so I would suggest that you are in a good time window!

    We booked most of ours a year out, still booking a few bits now but we have a mid week wedding so it's a little easier

    Venue - 16 months
    Photographer - 12-13 months
    Caterers - 9 months
    Bakery - 9 months, but then they closed, so we ended up booking our backup bakery about 3 months before our wedding.

    I booked the venue 9 months, restaurant 6 months and cake 6 weeks.

    @kljohnson88 I'm getting married March 2015 and already have venue and photographer booked... waiting for Bridal Spectacular in January to make a final decision on DJ and hair/makeup. I figure if you CAN book vendors far in advance, might as well - just a few more things checked off the list!!

    How far in advance have you ladies booked hair/make up??
