Wedding deposit down, 2 years to go?.....

Hi,

We booked ours about 2 years in advance too and i am just over a year off until my date!

As soon as I booked the venue I started looking at caterers. Once that was booked done I started looking at photographers, then bands, then the dress then flowers. I now have all the big stuff sorted.

I am a bit of a control freak so it's important to me to plan ahead and I am not stressed out nearer the time. You have plenty of time so I think it depends on your personal preferences.

I found that photographers in particular can get booked up quickly so if there is one in particular you are after maybe start to consider approaching them?

Wedding insurance, photographer and any catering. Look at any planning guides and just check off anything that's reasonable to book now. If there's anything specific that you want that may be hard to find, research it now.

May also be worth booking the honeymoon.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you'll be getting married on a Thursday?

Thursday's aren't popular for weddings so you should be able to get all of your bookings no problem and even ask for a few cheeky discounts! (Mine is exactly one year before yours)

When you booked it 2 years in advance Did you have to pay all of it right away or could you pay a small amount?

I like to plan ahead also and I am going to pay my venue off in October this year as our wedding is next October. I think organising your style, colour scheme, floral arrangements, looking into photographers, florists, jewellers etc will be great head start even 2 years prior!
