    Ours was the date, but we ended up changing it. The first decision we went through on was the venue, the laboratory mill!

    Because of the time of year we were choosing, we chose to lock down our venue and date.

    We decided on our wedding date before we decided on anything else.

    The venue, depending in the venue you can design your wedding decoration, make the invitations and fund the proper dress.

    First decision was the venue. Once we locked in a date with them, hired all the vendors then began the little details. Four months to go!

    We began going to see venues almost immediately- picked the venue/date ASAP. figured the rest is going to fall into place after that!

    We got engaged january 2018 and planned on having the wedding in june of 2020, this way we would have enough time to plan and save since i was in school finishing my degree at the time. i got my dress & veil shortly after we got engagement before anything was planned and I feel like that was a great decision! it took the worry and stress out of trying to find one in a certain amount of time on top of all the other high stress decisions that were to come.

    after that we designed all of our stationary: invites, save the dates, seating chart, etc and had them saved and ready to order when it was time. I started to get little things that i knew i wanted on Etsy like jewelry and hair accessories, the guest book, get ready robes, etc. About 4 months later, we found our venue and selected our date then immediately booked our officiant, florist, makeup artist, hair stylist, dj, and cake baker shortly after since those vendors require the most notice in advance to secure booking.

    now that all the big ticket items are secured, we are able to focus more on the small scale things that aren’t as time sensitive!

    The first thing I knew we needed to do was pick the venue and secure a date. After that, everything else I feel falls into place. Plus, many venues offer included decor options or packages with dj and photographer which makes it easier because that takes this things off the list and saves time.

    We decided on our vendor unofficially and the date officially. Because Searles Castle (my vendor choice) had dates in October (Corey's season choice), we went with them. I guess my answer is that we both had 1 thing in mind for what would make our wedding perfect and each of us got that right away!
