Building a realistic wedding budget
The venue price is one part of your wedding budget. Food, photography, music, decoration and travel can each affect the final total.

Separate fixed and per-person costs
Multiply the guest count by the quoted menu price, then add fixed costs such as photography and music. Check minimum guest commitments and the price of additional guests.
Leave room for uncertainty
Keep a contingency suited to your circumstances. Treat an unconfirmed amount as unknown rather than free, and revise the budget when written quotes arrive.
Compare alternative dates
Ask for like-for-like quotes for weekdays and dates outside the busiest season. Availability and savings depend on the business; neither should be assumed.
