Pay off the wedding early?

I’ve won some money on my work’s lottery and I’m debating what to do with it. It’s definitely going towards the wedding, but should I pay off the vendors now (deposits have been paid and date is secured) or should I put it into savings and pay closer to the time? Our wedding is in April 2024, I want to pay off the flowers and the photographer but my mum is saying I should just put it into the wedding fund and pay everything off closer to the date in case they go out of business/something happens etc.


What would you do?

    I would say that your Mum has the right approach and to hold on.

    So just keep it at deposits and pay the remaining balance when it’s due?

    Definitely keep in your account and pay when due, just in case anything happens with your vendors, you will also earn about 10p in interest!😂
