Last day for taste testing?

A while ago (maybe 1 or 2 months) I called the reception venue about setting up a time to taste the food. They said they would call me back when they have another party that orders the same / similar menu so we can come in then (they would just add a little extra for us to try) since they don't keep the "special events" menu items in stock and they order them as they need it. When do you think I should start to worry about not getting in for a taste testing? I know I still have about 7 months or so until the wedding (July) but I don't know when the latest day should be for the testing or when I should begin to get worried / contact them again if I haven't heard from them yet??

    Our venue actually gave us a timeline for our wedding preparation; for a September wedding they suggest a taste testing in June. We then have to make our final food decision two months before our wedding. So I would suggest giving them a call 3-4 months out and asking what they have scheduled in the near future.

    The only issue is that if you're doing a plated meal and giving your guests a choice, you'll need to have the entrees decided on before you order your invitations (with rsvp cards). Just something to consider

    We have a July wedding and set to do the first taste testing in February. Ask them for a timeline.

    I already have the menu decided for what we're going to have for food. I just want to be able to honestly tell our guests, yes I have tried the food.... My family can be snooty about food at times :/

    I tried asking for a timeline and that's when I got the response of they will let me know when someone else orders the same menu or at least very similar menu as what we want....
