Wedding Costs

Budgeting for your Wedding Day.

 A wedding is a celebration of your union as a couple with your family & friends. When you decide to plan your wedding day it is important to set your wedding budget. Wedding costs can easily escalate if you don’t track them.

Whether organizing a wedding celebration for 60, 100 or 200+ guests, the first thing to do is to draw up a list of what is important to you as a couple. Type of ceremony, guest list, food choices, style of venue, wedding attire, music.

The second thing to do is to decide how much you want to spend in total on your wedding day.

I have put together a Wedding Costs Tracker spreadsheet. It details all of the typical Wedding costs that can be incurred. When booking each Wedding Supplier please make sure you have a signed contract and that you read the Terms & Conditions.   

If you would like a free copy of the Wedding Cost Tracker to enter your own wedding costs please request via the Contact Page . I have 3 formats for a boy/girl wedding, a boy/boy wedding or a girl/girl wedding. In the Message box just request which format you would like.

I have also included typical costs per item for an Irish Wedding. This is a guide only, costs will vary based on where you are located, venue cost & what budget you have available for your big day. Some couples will spend €5000, others €20000 and others €50000+.

Remember it’s YOUR BIG DAY, so do what YOU WANT.

Also included are 1. Thank You list to keep track of what each person/couple gives you and 2. Guest List with simple Table Plan to help you plan where each guest will sit.

Happy Wedding Planning & Budgeting.
