Wedding budget calculator
Free wedding budget calculator: enter your total, guests and city to get a category-by-category split with sourced averages.
How much should I spend on a wedding?
The Knot 2025 Real Weddings Study reports an average of $33,000 for 2024 weddings and about $15,000 for fewer than 50 guests, $42,000 for more than 100. Your own number depends on city, guests and date.
How is the budget split?
Venue, catering, photography, flowers and music use published averages; the other lines use labelled editorial weights. It is a starting point, not a quote.
Is the calculator free?
Yes. No account is needed and couples never pay.
