I planned my own party, and in my opinion, the venue should be picked out FAST, along with the DJ, live mariachi or banda (whatever your style is), food, decor, and photography. I was lucky, and my venue provided tables, chairs, a DJ, and food. Research your vendors as much as you can. Listen to reviews on Google or Yelp; don't fall for people saying they don't focus on those sites and only care about their website or Instagram. Those can easily be manipulated to seem positive. READ THE CONTRACTS!!! Communication is key with everyone involved. I started planning over a year in advance but still had last-minute things. Get your dress before decor. If you love a color on yourself but have already developed a theme or color scheme with the decorators, it takes more time to create another! Enjoy the day; not everything will go according to plan, but that's okay! Breathe and just try to relax. :)
