The most important process of planning your wedding is establishing a budget. Take time to plan your wedding budget, and then prioritize which elements of your wedding are most important to you. For instance, you may want to spend more on your photographer than your flowers.

Secondly, how are you funding your wedding? Combine your financial resources to determine your budget. It is a high possibility that you budget may change as you research venues.

Budget for:

* Reception ﾖ including rentals, catering, car, cake, facility, tax
* Ceremony ﾖ Facility rental, marriage license, officiant, decorations, rentals
* Photographer ﾖ Wedding package, prints, albums, engagement portraits
* Videographer ﾖ Video package fee, DVD copies
* Flowers ﾖ Brideﾒs bouquet, site flowers ceremony/reception, boutonnieres/corsages
* Entertainment ﾖ Ceremony and reception
* Stationery ﾖ Invitations, wedding programs, announcements, postage, thank you cards
* Health & Beauty ﾖ Hair, makeup, spa
* Brideﾒs apparel ﾖ Dress, veil, shoes, lingerie/hosiery, jewelry, alterations
* Groomﾒs apparel ﾖ Tux, shoes, cufflinks
* Transportation ﾖ Limousine service, guest transportation
