Step 2: The Wedding Budget, Phase 2

As a follow-up to last week’s episode, this week we are discussing how to allocate your total budget once you figure out how much is feasible for you and your partner to spend.

We’ve covered all that’s involved in coming up with that number, with frameworks like the 50/30/20 rule and other tips for calculating your potential spend, but once you have a total, how do you divide it across categories?

Of course, your personal budget and the portion you spend on each aspect of your wedding will vary depending on your priorities, but we are giving you some ballpark numbers to start with.

About The Bouquet Toss Podcast

The Bouquet Toss Podcast is Part of the Evergreen Podcasts Network

The Bouquet Toss is a wedding planning podcast that empowers couples to plan a meaningful, authentic, and affordable wedding celebration! On the show, we will have candid conversations all about weddings and why we do them the way we do so that couples can plan their weddings based on their own values, and not on the expectations of others.

In our Budget-Savvy Wedding Planning Community, we see the same questions asked over and over again. So many couples seem to be seeking permission to plan their weddings on their own terms, and we’re here to say go for it! We believe you should have your day, your way and our goal is to help empower you to plan a wedding celebration that actually feels authentic to you.
