How to Allocate a Wedding Budget

Industry guidelines suggest splitting the budget across major categories.

Typical Allocation

  • Venue & Catering: 50%
  • Photography & Video: 10%
  • Flowers & Decor: 8%
  • Music & Entertainment: 8%
  • Attire & Beauty: 7%
  • Everything else: 17% (invitations, favors, cake, officiant, tips, etc.)
  • Lösungsbeispiel

    $30,000 wedding budget for 120 guests.

    1. Venue & Catering = $30,000 x 50% = $15,000
    2. Photography = $30,000 x 10% = $3,000
    3. Flowers = $30,000 x 8% = $2,400
    4. Music = $30,000 x 8% = $2,400
    5. Attire = $30,000 x 7% = $2,100
    6. Other = $30,000 x 17% = $5,100
    7. Per guest = $30,000 / 120 = $250
