May 2012 Weddings

How soon did you announce your date?

<profile information is not exact due to masking details>

So we have been engaged all of 2 weeks and have set a date. It's based on the chapel availability and work schedules and all that kinda stuff. Everyone keeps asking after they notice the ring or when I call what's the date. I was trying to stick to just a general month because we don't know how big the wedding will be yet. I just keep saying we are thinking of a small wedding.

So question- how soon did you set a date? How confident were you in that date and when did you start announcing it? Did you tell everyone or just the people you're inviting? 

My prioirities are #1 making sure my old parish priest can do the wedding (I have a tentative yes), #2 the chapel (which I have reserved now) and I'd like to narrow down the reception site. We're going to look at some of the places when we visit my hometown next month. 

Sorry if I sound a bit scattered but I'm finding that after years of dreaming it's hard to believe the reality of an actual date... next May
