In your opinion, what is the minimum amount of time you NEED to plan a 250 person wedding?
My FF and I plan on getting engaged around January (he won''t tell me exactly when because its a surprise- I am hoping December, but January is likely). He is in round 2 for interviews for a job that would start in June and that would move us wherever they choose for us to go for one year and then they would move us to another place for one year before placing us permanently someplace else.
We have always discussed a September 2009 wedding, which would cause me not to have insurance if I went with him in June- or we could have a LDR for 3 months until we are married and I move where he is. The other problem is he will only get 5 days off work this first year, which would be all used up on our honeymoon and not holidays. We were thinking about possibly moving things up to get married in maybe April or May- which would only give me 3-4 months to plan this huge wedding, but would allow us to take the honeymoon before he starts work so the 5 days could be used for holidays. It also would allow me to join his insurance plan as soon as it starts. I already know what colors I want, what music I like, the favors, what I want centerpieces to look like, etc. My mom will be helping me with everything and I have TONS of help from friends too. The issue would be with venue booking. Anyway, is this doable from your opinion or am I crazy? Should I just suck it up and wait until September?? Thoughts please
