How many months until your wedding?

Easy Weddings visitors are just months away from wedding date

Most Easy Weddings visitors are just a few months away from their wedding according to the results of a poll on the website. 84% of Easy Weddings visitors that took part in the poll reported that they were less than 12 months away from their wedding date, and 40% were less than three months away.

The results of the poll indicate that couples do most of their wedding planning in the year before their wedding, with only 16% completing the Easy Weddings poll more than a year before the event. This corresponds to the trend for couples to marry roughly one year after their engagement.

Visitors to the website will have a different purpose depending on how far they are from their wedding date. The 36% that completed the poll 7-18 months before their wedding may have been looking for general ideas or details of wedding venues or caterers. The 58% that visited the site during the six months leading up to their wedding are more likely to have been searching for  finishing touches such as flowers, bomboniere, and wedding cakes.

The fact that 40% of the respondents were only three months or less from their wedding date shows how the excitement builds as the wedding day approaches. During this time couples are more likely to spend time surfing wedding websites, perhaps reading and contributing to forums and getting ideas from other couples as well as checking out suppliers for their own wedding. They may also be updating their own wedding website with those all important details.
