Today I'm finally revealing our wedding budget! Here I'm going to be deep diving on our budget and showing you our exact costs, how much we spent in the end and also sharing whether we went over budget or under budget. I'll also be sharing some tips and hacks and so you can try and save as much money as possible. But ultimately you'll be able to see how much a wedding REALLY does cost! Saving up for weddings can be very expensive, so we were very conscious with our spending and had a goal to save as much money as possible! This allowed us to cut costs where we can so that we could still save up for an amazing wedding regardless! So if you're interested in seeing tips on how to save for a wedding then hopefully this will help! Some of the examples are UK based, but I do think there are also some useful tips you can use anywhere!

The light blue looks so good on you! Both of you avoided so many pitfalls others would be in, so congratulations on that. I personally can't imagine organising everything for a wedding because it can be quite chaotic. Even though your wedding expenditure is on the smaller end of the scale, I can't fathom spending that amount of money for 1 day.

@@camillemondido3419 we set a strict budget, looked around for the best prices, used local small businesses and local businesses that we have a rapport with. Got married at a registry office and had our reception at a local venue as opposed to a large hotel or Manor House. We refused to start our marriage off in debt and decided that having a family holiday and putting money towards our home was more important then a hugely extravagant wedding.

Hi Sandra, we did our wedding at Regency banqueting suite, however the price we got was before the pandemic - if you’re looking for similar venues I would just search banqueting halls in London on google - that’s how we found most of them!
