    We booked the venue in July (15 months out)! October is a popular month so we tried to do it as early as possibleSmiley smile

    We booked ours 7 months ago. It was the very first thing that we did and we signed off on the venue pretty much immediately once we were engaged. We had our wedding date picked out before we got engaged, so we knew we wanted to do that quickly so we could secure our date.

    We can’t book the ceremony location until 1 year in advance, so it’ll be 12 months before the wedding.

    8 months in advance. I knew the owners, though...
    So FYI, don’t be last minute like me unless you are well-connected, lol

    We got engaged in April and booked our venue in May. We had our venue booked 9 months prior to our wedding.

    We booked 17 months in advance, one month after getting engaged. Thank goodness we booked that early, because our venue was completely booked for 2020 just a couple of months later.

    We ended up booking February 2020 for June 2021. Glad we did as they had already booked 2 of the 4 weekends available already!
