Even if you don't book anything straight away (or can't as some places do not book too far in advance) it can't hurt to start having a look at bridal magazines and expos just to get an idea of what you need to get done.
As for location, that is something that you probably need to decide between you and your fiance. You would also need to consider where most of your guests reside, and if you are travelling whether it will be possible for them to do so as well, or if you don't mind if they don't attend.

Thank you!
I would mind if family didn't attend, so I suppose my biggest concern is making it as convenient for everyone while still making it enjoyable for ourselves as well. Which will be very difficult. You don't think 3 years is too early to at least think about the location and venue? I didn't think it was too big of a deal to worry so soon about this when he proposed to me in December, but for some reason when I woke up the other day I decided I just HAVE to figure this out now. I don't know why, must be some sort of intuition. Or maybe I secretly want to get married sooner ;-) shh.. no telling anyone.
All of the TV shows and movies of women planning weddings are made out to be a very stressful process but I don't see why it is so stressful if one gives themselves a wealthy amount of time to plan prior to the Wedding. ..right? Or should I be terrified?
