Now's the time to think about what you want your wedding to look like.
So, when you're 13-15 months out from the big day, use this time to research, gather ideas, and create a vision. In fact, according to The Knot Real Weddings Study, the average engagement length is 15 months. In general, most couples take over a year to plan their wedding.While it's modeled as a 12-month wedding checklist, you can use this guide for whatever amount of time you do have-just follow the order of tasks and you'll be good to go. A wedding planning timeline is not one-size-fits-all, which is why we've crafted this checklist to work for you regardless of how much time you have to plan. While some couples want a longer, multi-year engagement, others might prefer to say their "I dos" mere months after getting engaged. Every couple is different, which means there's no pressure to follow a timeline that doesn't fit your needs.
