how long do i need to wait before i book flowers and get invites

I have horrid anxiety and I want to get them done now... but my fiances mom said there's plenty of time and not to worry about it.
Same thing with engagement shots (I can see that waiting)

:/

I have almost everything booked and we're not getting married until may 4th 2013

    I booked nearly everything in Oct 2011 for our Dec 2012 wedding. Florist included, but mine was included with the venue. You're fine, you have plenty of time, but if you find someone and really want to do it, I say go for it, one less thing to deal with later. Engagement shots can totally wait, but if you want them outside, I'd consider doing it before the weather cools down... If it ever cools down...

  • My wedding is in June 2014 and I have already found my florist. I say plan as early as you want. Plus, it gives you an idea of what your total is going to be for the whole wedding.

    <div>Yeah, this. </div><div>
    </div><div>If you find a good deal on a vendor, you're going to want to lock that price in with a contract. However, I would make sure to verify their refund policy before booking, just in case something happens and you aren't able to keep your original date. (But that's something everyone should do anyway)</div><div>

  • i agree, I looked for a florists and it took me 3 months it was the hardest decision for me! I would look when you want, they might not be able to give you actual prices because flowers change so much but they can should you their work and prices. 
  • i did everything pretty fast. i don't have much flowers so i did that like first. invites i had someone make them and they are still being worked on (i need more info).
  • We are getting married next April and we just got our engagement pics done a few weeks ago. I didn't want to get them to early but I still wanted it to be warm outside. We also have almost everything planned. I just wanted to get it all done and out of the way so I didn't have to worry about it.
