Creating a wedding budget can feel overwhelming, but it’s essential to keep your wedding planning on track. Here’s how to create and stick to a budget that works for you.
1. Set Your Total Budget
Start by determining the total amount you can spend on your wedding. This includes all costs from venue to transportation.
2. Prioritize Your Spending
Determine what’s most important to you. Spend more on what you value—whether that’s photography, catering, or the venue—and allocate less to other areas.
3. Research Costs
Do your research before you start booking. Know how much each vendor typically charges, and adjust your budget accordingly.
4. Factor in Extra Costs
Don’t forget about the hidden costs like tips, taxes, and unexpected expenses. Add a 10-15% cushion for unforeseen costs.
5. Track Your Spending
Keep track of all payments and deposits to avoid overspending. Use wedding planning apps or spreadsheets to stay organized.
