How early to starting making bookings for your wedding?

It depends on how much you want certain vendors - I tried to book a photographer for an anniversary party six months in advance (I thought that would be plenty of time) & it wasn’t - all the decent photographers had already been booked for June weddings a year in advance and no one we liked was available for our party. We lucked out because we found someone who had just started their own firm & had open dates (& had a good portfolio of previous work), but it was very difficult.

In a city like Toronto where there is a lot of demand the few good make up artists, halls, photogaphers, DJ who know how to do the kind of events we like, I think you probably need to give yourself a year to plan. If you give yourself a little extra time it just means that you can spread everything out a bit more & not be so rushed when you do start, so I don’t see the downside of starting early.

yup
its always better to start early, but remember, thinking toooooo much about your wedding makes it stressful. even then in the end, somethings are not in ur control

but since you have a lot of time before ur big day, i suggest u do all the paper work and other little details for now, and the bookings after ur official “baat-pakki”
