12+ Months Before Your Wedding

In the beginning stages of your wedding planning process, you’ll be making decisions that will help you set the tone for the rest of your planning. Here are the first things you should do 12 months before your wedding day.

Important to note: The most popular wedding seasons in Central Florida are typically Mid March to the End of May and Mid September to Mid November. If you are wanting to get married during this time, you will need to book your venue and the vendors you love as soon as possible due to the high demands of these months. However, keep in mind that we are expecting 2022 and 2023 to be exceptionally busy for weddings due to the COVID19 shutdowns in 2020 and 2021. If you have a certain time that you are wanting to get married and a specific venue and vendors, book as soon as you can.
