Hello all!
This is my first non-intro post. Basically, I am very newly engaged, and I'm looking to get married at the end of next summer. I am concerned, though, because I will not be living in Houston for the majority of my wedding planning. I'm actually going to be studying for the bar exam this summer, so while I would love to fly down and visit and look at everything RIGHT NOW (!!! I'm just in the excited phase!), I'm afraid I really won't have time because I should be focusing on that. So I'm kind of in this limbo until August.
I guess my two main questions are, does anyone have any experience/tips for planning a wedding from far away? I've looked into some wedding coordinators and such, but I want to be able to interview them before I decide, and again, I won't be able to give it the attention I think it warrants until this August.
And am I thinking just entirely too far ahead? Or behind? Will I be scrambling to find vendors who are still available in August (2012) for June/July (2013)??
Thank you!
