1. Who’s Contributing with your wedding
Yes, we know that money conversations can be strange, but figuring out who your contributors are is important to have a better perspective of what your budget will be. Find out how much each contributor is willing to invest, or what particular feature of the wedding they’d like to take care of. (For example, maybe your father has thought about buying the wedding cake).
2. Couple Contribution
Once you know of how much financial assistance you’ll receive from family. You can focus your attention to your own contribution, what truly do you want in your wedding? How many guests? How do you want people to feel in your wedding? What special details do you want on that special day?
3. Quote based on your guest list
The true cost of your wedding is based on your guest list. The number of guests that will be coming will conclude not only how big your venue will be, but also how much provisions and alcohol you’ll have to provide which will be two of the biggest wedding expenses. Being smart about who you invite to your wedding is the best way to save on wedding costs.
4. Your Non-Negotiables
Maybe the groom wants a buffet, but you’d prefer to have a specific meal for saving costs. What is one of your wedding ideas that is at the top of your check list?
5. Research
No wonder that wedding budgets often go to the sky! Therefore, educate yourself on the “hidden” cost, you will have fewer surprises and be closer to your bottom line. Investigate and search for the type of wedding you want, be honest to yourself whether or not it fits into your budget, and adjust your plan if not.
6. Math breakdown
Does your budget listing match the actual expense of your dream wedding? Once your budget estimate is close to your ideal wedding, create a sheet and designate a certain amount of money for all features of the event.
Weddings Roatan recommends that you use Google Sheets so that you can easily share spreadsheets with the groom, parents, and others who will help you in the budget.
Wedding planning is a huge and stressful job and just like anything else, there are some mistakes you will want to avoid when planning your wedding budget.
