Beginner July 2019

A few questions

LuxuriousPinkDecor833, 14 February, 2018 at 14:03 Posted on Planning 0 1

So i have my wedding booked for July 2019.

I have it all booked in hotel not too far from where i live. I have a few questions and was hoping maybe some of you may be able to help with answers. I know i will need to ask my wedding coordinator to be sure, for one of them but to cut a long story short i am now onto my 3rd wedding coordinator due to people leaving and only being give a stand in and stuff and dont get to actually meet her untill middle of March.

When should i be looking at sending Save the Dates out? We have around 85 people coming for the day time a few who have children and i am quite aware that this might be the start of school summer holidays so want to get in there before people start booking holidays etc.

I really want quite simple and plain table centrepieces, my venue is all old brick walls and flooring with the beams covered in fairy light etc. I have arranged down lighters for around the walls soooo i am thinking candle centre pieces ( im not a fan of flowers either tbh). Now i have had a look and what price for me to hire lanterns with candle it looks as though i could be cheaper to buy them. If i do this will the hotel just put them on the tables for me when they are changing my room around from ceremony to receptiong. or do i need to arrange someone to be there to set it all up.

How far in advance should i book things like makeup, hair etc?

How far in advance do you start looking at wedding dresses?

Thanks everyone

    Save the dates - 12 to 18 months in advance

    A hotel will usually set the room up for you, but best check.

    Dress, hair and makeup and other big suppliers, 12 to 18 months

    I’ve found it cheaper to do centrepieces myself - you can pick up a lot of stuff like lanterns and jars with fairy lights in them on Facebook and can resell them on there afterwards. Sure your hotel will set tthwm up for you.
