Long engagements are becoming more popular and are not unusual. Many couples like to finish college or have time to save for the big day. Your wedding day will arrive quicker than you think. It is smart to start your planning early.

Forget about mailing save-the-date cards now unless you are planning a destination wedding. Inform guests and friends to expect an invitation in a year.

Before you start your planning 2 years in advance, the first step to accomplish is determining your budget. Will your parents contribute?

Secondly, research the costs of photographers, florists, DJﾒs, and reception sites.

Third, save, save, save! Two years in advance should nearly pay for your dream wedding. It is smart to place your wedding savings into a money-market account until you absolutely have to take it out to pay for vendors ﾖ let your wedding savings earn more money for you!

Fourth, the more time you have to plan - the greater chance you have at reserving your ultimate selection. Choose your site now!
