I just recently got engaged about a month and a half ago. My fiance and I talked about a tentative wedding date but I was just wondering: which is better to do FIRST, talk to our priest (catholic) or find the place of reception/vendor? I ask because I heard you shouldn't really set a date without consulting the priest first, but then again, I know you should select a vendor/reception asap to make sure the date is available. Suggestions? What did you do? Thanks.
