While looking through some of the popular wedding sites, you’ll find a lot of advice about the time needed to plan a wedding. I also came across a poll that showed that over half of the couples surveyed began planning their weddings 12-18 months in advance.

But I was really surprised to learn that nearly 25% of couples do it in 3-6 months or less.

Of course, a lot depends on the size and scope of the wedding, and how disciplined you are when it comes to meeting deadlines and getting things done. I’ve worked with both types of individuals.

But for those of you who think you’re running behind, take heart. Here is some advice from a two couples that did plan their wedding in three months or less, as well as some good tips on the subject from a wedding planning professional.
