[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of couples have to have long engagements here in this area because venues book up about 18 months in advance. I only had an 11 month engagement and had to take a spot that got vacated by chance (their next spot wasn't available for 2 years). [b]It's not always the couple's choice.[/b]

If they are engaged, but not actively booking wedding venues and caterers, I would think they don't plan on getting married.[/quote]

But it is the couple’s choice. Guarantee they could find somewhere within a few months. I had a four month engagement in DC and had a beautiful church wedding and a reception at a fabulous venue.[/quote]

You can definitely find a place.  It is the couple's choice to go all bridezilla/groomzilla and declare that only one venue works for their reception (which is why many of us see this this for what it is - as masking ambivalence about the overall relationship).[/quote]

How is it bride/groomzilla to pick a specific venue and want it badly enough to wait? It’s not like they’re charging you by the day. Such judgement. [/quote]

You’re right that many of us judge people as unenthused about one another after they’ve date for years, then hem and haw when it comes to nailing down the details, or act like Goldilocks about the venues.

If you’re so secure in your relationship, why do you care if others judge you?[/quote]
