So, there is still <19 months till my wedding, and so far I have booked my reception venue, my church, my wedding planner, my band, and now I am looking at photographers. I've compared 4 different companies, (2 of which came from Donnie Brown's preferred vendors list). I have found one that I like, and they fall within our budget; kind of. I think we've decided we don't want a professional videographer, so if we combine the allocated amounts for photography and videography together than they are with in the budget!
I think I've decided on one of Donnie's vendors, http://www.ninephotography.com/. Their photos are pretty amazing, and they seem so nice, and really willing to work with you to help you stay with in budget. Plus if Donnie recommends them, I'm sure they are amazing!
But, is it weird to be spending thousands of dollars to reserve all of these vendors so early in the game?
I'm already getting nervous that I might change my mind about my "theme", which my band (Frank Sinatra Tribute Band) and my reception venue (has the look of a 1940's supper club) complement so well!
I guess I have cold feet towards my vendors; what if I find someone better later? what if I wait, and then I can't have them anymore? What is the appropriate amount of time to spend looking for vendors before you know you have the best quality vendor at the best price?

Hi Everyone,
I'm sure most people know who Donnie Brown is; the wedding planner on Whose Wedding Is It Anyways? I've recently hired him, and am very excited to be working with him, but I was wondering if there is anyone out there who has worked with him before and can tell me how it went.
Thanks!

I'm having a 7pm Catholic Ceremony followed by a formal reception. My colors are black and ivory, with accents of dark red (think black magic roses). I want my bridesmaids to wear black. I've always imagined them wearing black satin knee length cocktail dresses with a glitzy pendent or something similar. I have heard recently that since my ceremony/reception is so late in the evening, it would only be appropriate for them to wear floor length dresses.
Opinions please!

I can't wait to get married! 6-4-2011
Scott and I have been together for almost 6 years (April 2010). We met our freshman year of college at The University of Texas at Austin and had every single class together until we graduated! We moved to Baltimore 2.5 years ago so that Scott could attend Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. We planned our wedding date to be 1 week after he graduates from Med School! :)
I currently work >60 hours/ week as a research tech in Oncology at Johns Hopkins. I also babysit on the weekends and love to play with my yorkie, Stewie! In my spare time (haha) I read everything I can about weddings!
