Here are some interesting facts that might help you in planning your special day.

10 Months is the number of months at the very least, you should book your venue. If you are having a church wedding, you might even want to consider booking the church out a year to eighteen months in advance of the big day.
Did you know that December is the most popular month to get engaged? February runs a close second, since Valentine’s Day is a when love is in the air.
From the day that you got engaged to the day of your wedding you’ll spend 3x more time planning your wedding. There is so much involved in working on all the aspects of a wedding. It might be nice to have some help, especially on the day of your wedding.
95% of couples have a bridal party (have you asked your friends and family yet?) Think about this. You want your closest friends beside you on your special day. Ask the ones you love early, so they can put the date on their calendar.
Did you know that 15% of brides begin planning their wedding before they even have a ring? Yes, girls dream big, and why not. Every little girl dreams of their wedding day. It's natural! We want our big day to be perfect. So brides start with looking at wedding gowns in magazines and go from that point forward.
The number of weddings that happen from May to October is 8 in10. As you can see, wedding months of May, June, July, August, September, and October are the most popular. June and October are still the most popular, with September running a close second. September can be a wonderful month for an outdoor wedding, with temperatures cooling off, especially in the evenings.
Brides may spend hours and make several trips with Mothers, friends or bridesmaids to pick the perfect dress. But three is the average number of wedding dresses a bride will seriously consider before deciding on the absolutely perfect dress for her big day.
