For a clear budget
List every item from the start. Small items like favors and transport add up and make a big difference to the total.
Start with the biggest. Dinner and the hall are usually the two largest items, and the guest count drives both.
Tick what you’ve paid. You always know how much is still to pay, not just how much you’ve spent.
Keep a margin. Set part of the budget aside for surprises and last-minute changes.
FAQ
How much does a wedding cost?
It varies widely with the city, guest count, venue and customs, and there are no reliable recent official figures, so we don’t suggest averages. Enter the quotes you’ve received and the tool adds them up.
How do I work out the dinner cost?
Enter the guest count and the price per guest from the venue’s or caterer’s quote; the tool multiplies them and adds the result to the total.
Does the tool save what I enter?
Yes, in your browser only, on the same device. Nothing is sent anywhere. To keep a copy, print the budget or copy the summary.
Can I change the items?
Yes. Rename or delete any item and add what you need. “Start over” restores the original list.
