Here’s the honest truth: weddings don’t come with a price tag stamped on them. The budget depends on your guest list, priorities, and just how extra you want to get with the florals. National averages and many estimates put 2025-2026 weddings between $25,000–$40,000, but it’s about where you want to spend, not just the bottom line.
Where the Money Goes:
- Venue & Catering: 40–50%
- Photography/Video: 10–15%
- Attire & Beauty: 5–10%
- Flowers & Decor: 8–12%
- Music/Entertainment: 5–10%
- Everything Else (cake, stationery, transportation, etc.): 10–20%
The Venue Difference: With flexible packages, inclusive rentals, and the ability to host both ceremony and reception, we help you stretch every dollar. Think of it as champagne taste without the hangover price tag.
