Before starting your wedding planning, between the two of you, you need to decide on a budget for your wedding. This is a crucial first step of your planning process and will help to keep you grounded throughout your planning. But how do you start? Below are a few questions to consider to help you as you begin your planning.
What is the most important to you?
When you begin planning, it can feel overwhelming to know what you should be spending money on and how much is a reasonable amount. When you’re ready to start planning, decide between the two of you which three aspects of your wedding day are really important to you, and allocate a larger portion of the budget to these areas.
For example, whilst some couples will prioritise cinema level videography, others will prioritise an open bar for their guests. How you spend your budget is based on what you value out of a day, so there is no right or wrong way to spend it. Once you have decided on your three things, the other aspects of the day can either be cut, be given a more budget friendly option or perhaps a friend or family member could help as a gift.
