Frequently Asked Questions
What is a realistic wedding budget split?
A common rule: venue ~35%, catering ~25%, decor ~10%, photo/video ~8%, clothes & makeup ~10%, jewellery ~5%, buffer ~7%.
How much buffer should I keep?
At least 5–10% — weddings almost always run over in last-minute costs.
Where do people overspend most?
Guest count (catering scales with it) and decor upgrades. Fix the guest list first — it's the biggest cost lever.
Should jewellery be in the wedding budget?
Only if you're buying new pieces for the event. Family jewellery you already own isn't a wedding expense.
