I think I need to word vomit my anxieties. So hi, I'm new here.. I recently got engaged, 9/7/21, and I just feel like I'm not doing anything right in the wedding planning world.
Venues have been a nightmare to find availability in even 2023 with in a reasonable price point. I found this incredible campground that has a lodge on a river in June of 2022. Weddings happen there often. However it's during the week. No weekends available even through 2023. It's super budget friendly. I understand a lot might not be able to take the time off work and were ok with that. But it some how feels wrong to have my wedding on Tuesday. Also, I now only have 8 months to plan. Ahhhh!!!!
Looking at doing engagement photos I fell in love with a photographers work and she's open on our date. So I booked her. Feels so weird since I didn't actually talk to any other photographers, but looked at a lot of online portfolios and hers was my style. Then I learned about release of prints... pretty sure she doesn't do that. Ugh.
I feel stressed that I am going to fast or doing things out of order. Or even wrong. Aka learning things like able to do prints and weekday wedding.
Choosing a non wedding venue I'm thinking pf hiring a planner would be very beneficial. But we also really want to keep our wedding low cost as possible. I'm stressing that the two things I have figured out being $6000 venue/photographer is already too much. I keep second guessing myself.
End of word vomit.
