A 2-months horizon is long enough to do the things that genuinely need lead time: book flights before prices climb, spread costs across several pay periods, and line up anything seasonal. Because Halloween 2026 falls in October, you can also plan it against other commitments in that month rather than treating it as an isolated date.
