I am still in the consultant phase so I am not 100% positive. I assume that once you sign a contract and put your deposit down with the consultant you get moved to a wedding planner who is a different person.
Are you doing a wishes or escape wedding? If you are doing a wishes wedding I would make sure that you at least put your date and time on hold for now so it isn't taken. If you are doing an escape I know there are restrictions about how far in advance you can book... maybe thats why she said she would be back in touch in March - did she contact you in March?
