    The first vendor we "officially" booked was the venue to ensure we had a solid date... however I emailed my photographer prior to booking the venue to make sure she was available that weekend in the event that we did have it then! Thankfully she was!

    I booked a photographer first. Last dream productions. I was scared that the engagement pics wouldn’t come out right but she made it so much fun. They were beautiful and touching

    The first thing we booked was our venue to have the date set and to be able to search for others. I had been to my venue before for events years ago and just remembered it being really dark (the wall paint and carpet colors) but promised my mom I'd take a look. They had done so many upgrades in the last few years that it was like walking into a completely new space!

    I already knew I'd be using a longtime family friend as my florist. She does beautiful work and has known me my entire life. :-)

    Our photographer was the very first person we booked! Living in Los Angeles, great photographers book up 1+ years in advance! We had one booked about 3 months after getting engaged! About 2 months later, we booked our venue Smiley smile

    I think our venue was the first one officially on the books.

    The photographer was the most important thing to me so I booked mine right away. Especially since I knew exactly what photographer I wanted and didn't want anyone to take my day lol.

    The wedding photographer was the first person I snagged especially since I knew They book up fast! Then it was the venue. I’m planning my entire wedding by myself and it’s stressful, but fun! Cause you only get to do it once!

    Our venue which covered catering, tables/chairs, and our ceremony space. Without the venue I felt like you couldn’t really book anything else because your date isn’t set in stone without a venue
