Determining When To Have Your Wedding

Your boyfriend recently got down on one knee and popped the question! The day was romantic and went perfectly as you had always imagined; Romeo down on one knee pleading for your eternal love. Well, perhaps it didn't go quite like that. Though, none the less you are now engaged and excited to get planning. You probably have already discovered the very first question all people will ask as soon as you share your exciting news is, "So, when is the date?" That may be a question that the two of you aren't even sure of yet. If you are feeling unsure on when your big day should take place don't feel alarmed. There are a few questions that you need to go over and you will be down to the month and maybe even the day.

Are there time restraints? In some cases you may need to be married right away. There are many reasons that this may be the case. Some examples could include being in the military or a break from school or work. Whatever the case might be try to come up with the most realistic option possible. Try to avoid your wedding day from being around other life changing decisions.

When is your anniversary? Perhaps it might be really important to the two of you to have your wedding day on the day you met or your very first date. Whatever it may be that is a special day for the two of you. It could even be the first time that love was declared. Nothing seals the day that you remember with your wedding day. It's the icing on the cake.

Do you want an indoor or outdoor wedding? If you have always dreamed of a beach wedding you can eliminate some of the colder months. If an indoor wedding is to your liking then you have more options that don't exclude particular months.

What is your budget? It may seem early to set a budget, but this is a great way to help to determine when to have your wedding. The warmer months are high demand for the wedding season, so if your budget is tight try a beautiful winter wedding. You can still manage to do outdoor weddings in the spring and fall just be choosey on your day. Perhaps refer to an almanac to pick the perfect date.

What is the availability of the venues? If you already know where you want to be married get in contact with the venue right away. There is no sense in setting a date that is already taken. If you are sure of the venue, are already month specific and all the weekends are taken try choosing an off day, such as a weekday as an alternative. This is also an awesome way to pinch pennies if you are trying to wed in the high season.

What fashions and styles do you want? If you're sure that you want a long sleeve or a sleeveless dress then you can eliminate seasons right away. Perhaps you know the colors that you want, this can also help to choose the season. You don't want fall colors in a spring wedding.

With all of these questions answered you are sure to come up with a day that will be perfect for the both of you. I recommend going over all of these questions with your fianc? right away. That way when people ask you when the big day is you can at least have an estimate. This also gets the planning process started, so when you make the announcement you can get people enlisted to help.
