For planning, not counting the wedding day
  • Less than a year: If you haven’t booked the venue, photographer, and band or DJ yet, that’s priority number one - peak-season dates in June, September, and October go first.
  • Sunday weddings often get the same discounts as Fridays - and on a holiday weekend (Memorial Day, Labor Day) your guests still have Monday off.

How we calculate

  1. We count calendar days in your time zone, from today to the wedding day. The result does not change depending on what time you open the page.
  2. Months are real calendar months (with 28, 30, or 31 days), not 30-day blocks.
  3. Saturdays left are the Saturdays from tomorrow until the day before the wedding - real time for fittings, tastings, and vendor meetings.

Cheat sheet: prices and good practice

How much time to plan

  • 18+ months: your pick of venues and vendors
  • 12-15 months: the sweet spot (the average engagement is about 15 months)
  • 6 months: doable, but peak-season Saturdays may be taken
  • 3 months: possible with a flexible date or a small wedding

When to book (ideally)

  • Venue for peak season: 12-18 months ahead
  • Photographer: 9-12 months
  • Band or DJ: 8-12 months
  • Florist: 6-9 months
  • Cake, hair and makeup: 4-6 months
  • Save-the-dates: 6-8 months before, invitations: 6-8 weeks before

Questions and answers

Do you count the wedding day?

No. “10 days left” means the wedding is 10 days from today - tomorrow it will say 9, and on the day itself 0.

Why don’t the months match the days divided by 30?

Because we count them like a calendar: March 15 to May 15 is exactly 2 months, even though it is 61 days.

When should we get the marriage license?

It depends on the state: most licenses are valid for 30-90 days, and some states have a waiting period of 1-3 days. Check your county clerk’s rules and apply about a month before the wedding.
