The Budgeting

• Set a Budget Early – Before booking anything, discuss a realistic budget with the group. Decide on a spending limit that works for everyone to avoid surprises later.

• Prioritize Essentials – Like accommodations, activities, and dining. Focus on what matters most to the bride and look for deals to save on extras.

• Split Costs Fairly – Use apps like Splitwise or Venmo to track and divide expenses. This keeps things transparent and ensures everyone pays their fair share.
