Setting a wedding budget is a crucial first step in planning your big day.
There are countless guides on the internet or magazines already and we would advise you to read from different sources to make your own idea on the planning a budget for your wedding.
You can read ours as well and pick something new.
Here’s our short guide:
- Determine your total budget: Start by determining the total amount you and your partner are willing and able to spend on your wedding. This will be the foundation of your budget.
- Allocate expenses: Once you have your total budget, allocate it to different expenses, such as venue, catering, photography, videography, attire, music, and decorations. Assign a percentage of the total budget to each expense category, based on what is most important to you.
- Prioritize expenses: Prioritize your expenses based on what is most important to you. For example, if you want an amazing photographer, allocate more money to photography.
- Get quotes: Get quotes from vendors to get an accurate idea of what each expense will cost. This will help you adjust your budget if necessary. You can simply start quoting from us.

- Be realistic: Be realistic about what you can afford and what you can compromise on. Don’t overextend yourself financially for your wedding.
- Review and revise: Regularly review your budget and make changes as necessary. You may need to revise your budget as you get closer to your wedding day.
- Be flexible: Be flexible with your budget and be prepared to make adjustments as necessary. Remember, your wedding day is about celebrating your love and commitment, not about spending a lot of money.
By following these steps, you can set a wedding budget that works for you and your partner, and ensures that your big day is both memorable and affordable.
