For quite some time now, I''ve thought that I wanted to be engaged for 2 years before my wedding. The reason I''ve been thinking that is because I am afraid that I would run into trouble booking venues etc. if I didn''t leave ample time. I''ve told my boyfriend a few times that I wanted to be engaged for 2 years (which he thought was kind of silly, but understood my concern about booking). Well lately, I''ve been hearing and reading about lots of people that have engagements around 1 year, so I''ve started to think about maybe being less strict about needing 2 years since it seems like it''s less difficult than I had thought. I don''t have a specific place in mind that I want the wedding or reception to be (though I have a few ideas!) so I guess I am pretty flexible in that respect.
So tell me, how much time do you all think is appropriate?
The reason I am wondering this now is because last night my boyfriend and I were talking about getting engaged and he said "well, you need 2 years..." and I said, "I don''t know, I''m not sure that I want 2 years anymore..." So he said, "Geez, will you make up your mind?!"
I guess he really is paying attention to what I want, and is trying to keep my time frames in mind.
So now I have to decide what will be best so that I can let him know...
