I bought mine over a year in advance.... they set it a side for me which gave me a whole year to save and pay for it since I know exactly how much it was going to cost me.

I am going for fittings now with 2 months left.

I just ordered mine the first weekend in August and my wedding is not till May 30 2009. The owner of the store said it takes 5-7 months depending on the designer and the season. The earlier the better I say. You still have time to shop around and get the one YOU LOVE!

I bought mine in January for my November wedding.  It arrived at the end of may, but they won't start alterations till September (I'm not having much done and she said she likes to wait till the last possible minute to allow for fluctuations in weight).
