Dude, my mom is a florist. She can give you the hookup for all of your wedding planning needs when it comes to anywhere in the Dayton/Springfield/Columbus area. If it's a fall wedding, best to start planning just after the holidays (January/February) because that's when most of the places start booking... depending on the location, some want a year in advance, but 6-8 months beforehand is standard for a no-frills type of event.

wedding planning helps you pick out venues (i.e. where to hold the ceremony and/or reception depending on # of people and cost), recommend formal wear (she rents tuxes but not gowns) for the wedding party if you so desire, as well as who is the best at catering, DJing, cake, and all the little stuff (guestbooks, candles, etc) that goes into making a wedding a memorable event. Nitty gritty details like how many people are in the wedding party, what sort of unique (both religious and secular) aspects do you want it to have, are there any family considerations to keep in mind, who can print up your invitations/thank you cards, and even resources to do-it-yourself if you have a capable computer and printer ( ... )

awesome. I think we can handle most of that, between knowing a few ministers, djs, people for catering and such...other than that that could be great. We will talk.
