By the time you’ve settled on a wedding venue, you’ve likely already envisioned a tentative wedding floor plan based on your estimated guest count and whether you’ll offer a sit-down dinner or buffet. Many wedding planners recommend nailing down details like table shapes and sizes eight months in advance of your wedding.
Finalize your wedding floor plan two to three months before your nuptials, which still allows time to make changes. Expect to give your caterer and florist your final seating assignments two weeks before exchanging your vows.
