    I'm getting married on June 1, 2013, and I already booked the venue, church, photographer, videographer and DJ. The venue actually told me to wait on the floral until I have a better idea of how many tables I'll have for centerpieces, what colors I want, etc. I don't think florists are as in demand as the other big stuff.

    I don't think it's ever too early to book vendors. :) I booked my florist in August '09 for a June '10 wedding. A lot of the budget friendly florists book up quickly and/or they only do 1 wedding a day.

    I think once you're within a year of your wedding, you'll find more florists willing to talk to you.  You're 20 months out and your florist would want to give you a ballpark estimate for your vision.  Prices could change drastically in 20 months, but not as much in a year.  Don't be discouraged.  My florist met with me for the first time 9 months before my wedding and then didn't want to talk to me again until 3 weeks before the wedding to finalize the order.  I think it's just the nature of their business.

    I'm getting married June 1, 2013 and already booked my florist.  She said she was already booking for the fall of 2013 as well.

    I think as long as you have your venue picked out and saved you're OK to start the rest a year out, unless they're are any vendors who are really popular.

    You could always just ask to be penciled in for that date or ask when a good time to call back is.

    I would start contacting and at least you can get a ballpark figure or find out a time to contact them.

    This happened to me with one florist when I was just over a year out.  I kept looking and found a great florist who was willing to talk with me and even put together a sample free of charge.  They couldn't believe the other florist turned me away.
