Long Island's Premiere Limousine Service
P: (631) 587-8500
So... you’ve hired your wedding planner, put a deposit down on a venue, booked a caterer and secured your ceremony officiant. What’s next? See below to learn about all of the vendors that you should be focusing on booking in the next planning phase, 6-10 months before your wedding.
Entertainment - DJs, videographers, photographers, live bands, professional electric sliders, whoever you choose to hire for entertainment at your wedding, should be booked on the earlier end of the 6-10 month range. This will help to ensure that you will have variety in your options, and will give you a better chance at booking your top choice. Since great entertainment is at the core of every successful wedding, vendors tend to book up quickly.
Invitations - Although invitations are not necessary more than 6 months in advance, you should alert your guests of your wedding with a ‘save the date’ upon securing your venue. That way, they will have plenty of time to pencil your big moment into their busy schedules.
Florist - Since florists are typically used to handling a few weddings at a time, you’d be safe to book on the lower end of the 6-10 month timetable. However, take into account the size and popularity of the shop. Shops that are on the smaller scale or those that are more popular will sell out faster, especially if your wedding is planned during their busy season. If you have your heart set on a specific florist, try to put a deposit down as soon as you can.
Cake Baker - Similar to florists, bakeries are used to dealing with multiple cake orders at a time, so ordering within this timeframe should be perfect. Be sure to visit as many bakeries as possible and sample, sample, sample! That way, you can find the perfect cake flavor and design for your special day.
Transportation - If you're getting married in the spring during prom season, or want something unique by way of transportation, you may want to move this to the task up on the timeline. Transportation is so important on your big day, because without the ride there is no bride! Make sure to book your transportation at least 6 months in advance, to ensure that you can secure the best in the business - like your friends here at Dynasty Limousine!
