Wedding Budget Planner
Set a total budget or a guest count, and see how it typically splits across venue, catering, drinks, photography and everything else, the UK way.
A general guide. This planner is for fun and general planning only, a general guide to typical UK wedding spending, not a fixed budget, quote or financial advice. Actual costs vary hugely by location, guest count and choices.
Set a budget or guest count to see the split
Enter a total budget, or a guest count, and we'll break it down across all the typical UK wedding categories.
How the wedding budget split works
We take your total budget, either entered directly, or worked out from your guest count multiplied by a cost per head, and split it across the categories couples typically spend on for a UK wedding: venue hire, catering, drinks, photography and video, attire, flowers, entertainment, rings, transport, cake, stationery, favours, hair and makeup, and a contingency buffer for the unexpected. Choose a tier to scale the whole budget up or down for a more modest or more lavish day. These percentages are typical splits, not a fixed formula, every wedding is different, and you should treat this as a starting point for your own planning.
