Aligning Your Wedding Budget With Your Priorities
05/04/21 • 32 min
In episode 99, we’re talking about how you can build your wedding budget around your priorities of the day. Because very few of us have a truly “unlimited” budget and that means that we can’t necessarily get #allthethings we want. So, starting with a budget and a conversation about your priorities makes navigating the world of wedding planning much less stressful and confusing.
We talked about:
- Who should have a wedding budget
- How to know what to budget
- What makes a great event
- Getting granular on what makes an event “great” to you
- What your priorities have to do with your budget
- Why it’s important to track your budget
- A simple and beautiful way to keep track of your wedding budget
