Use this wedding budget calculator to get a realistic starting range, see where the money usually goes, and keep both of you aligned before you start booking vendors.
Choose your guest count, wedding style, and cost level to see a realistic planning range.
This breakdown follows the categories couples already use inside PlanWed: venue, food and beverages, entertainment, decorations, outfits, stationery, jewelry, and a buffer for everything else.
Most couples do not need the perfect number on day one. They need a realistic number they can discuss, adjust, and track together.
PlanWed is not just a calculator. It gives couples one place to track payments, stay aligned, and keep budget decisions connected to guests, RSVPs, and the rest of the plan.
Move from estimate to real budget categories, deposits, due dates, and totals in one place.
Make budget decisions together instead of losing context across notes, messages, and spreadsheets.
Guest count is one of the biggest cost drivers. PlanWed keeps those decisions connected.
It is a planning estimate, not a vendor quote. Use it to get your first realistic range, then refine it once you start collecting real prices.
Guest count, venue and catering level, entertainment choices, attire, and local market costs usually have the biggest impact.
Start with venue, catering, entertainment, decorations, attire, stationery, jewelry, and a healthy buffer for the unexpected.
Budget is easier to control when guest count, RSVP replies, and seating decisions all live in the same place.
Start with your number, organize your categories, and keep every payment visible in PlanWed.
