ONE-YEAR CHECK-IN: If you’re getting married in Fall 2024….You should:
– Finalize your guest list (need a firm idea for # of guests).
– Book your planner (first vendor)!
– Finalize your budget and who is contributing (your planner will help you create a realistic, itemized budget).
– Lock in your venue and any other high priorities! (ex. specific photographer, officiant, DJ, florist, live painter, etc., etc.)
– Invite loved ones to your wedding party (i.e. bridesmaids, groomsmen, attendants, flower children, etc., etc.), and figure out who will need the day of hair and makeup.
– Have your dress and/or custom suit on order (renting, off the rack, semi-custom folks have more time).
– Design your wedding website and Save the Dates (you’ll send these in the next three months).
– Start looking into hotel blocks.
– Start looking at & interviewing mid-priority vendors – this is different for everyone (ex. hair and makeup, rentals, baker, transportation, rehearsal dinner/brunch venue(s), musicians, activities, etc., etc.)
– Get inspired & start designing with the help of your planner, florist, and/or decorator.
– Think about your attire (made-to-order dresses and custom suits can take over six months to get in, plus time for alterations).
