Wedding Budget Planer — Formel
## Wedding Budget Allocation
Industry guidelines suggest standard percentage allocations for major wedding categories.
### Standard Breakdown
- **Venue & Reception**: 45% (catering, bar, rentals)
- **Photography & Video**: 12%
- **Attire & Beauty**: 10%
- **Flowers & Decor**: 8%
- **Music/Entertainment**: 8%
- **Planning/Stationery**: 7%
- **Contingency**: 10%
These are starting points. Adjust based on your priorities. The biggest budget lever is guest count, as food and beverage are the largest single expense.

Lösungsbeispiel
A $30,000 wedding with 120 guests.
- Venue & reception = $30,000 x 45% = $13,500
- Photography = $30,000 x 12% = $3,600
- Attire = $30,000 x 10% = $3,000
- Flowers = $30,000 x 8% = $2,400
- Cost per guest = $30,000 / 120 = $250
