Wedding Budget Planner spreadsheet ($8)

The spreadsheet keeps this split and adds what is booked and paid in each category, every deposit with its due date and whether it is overdue, and your guest list with RSVPs and cost per guest. Google Sheets & Excel.

Planned amount = total budget × share. Cost per guest = total budget ÷ guests coming. The last line is a buffer for costs that are easy to forget, such as tips, alterations and overtime. Your numbers stay in your browser; we count visits with cookie-free analytics.
