The tenth in a series of posts from Seaport's wedding and social event expert, Leah Malin
While this wedding is the very definition of over-the-top, I bet even that Bride (and her planner..or planners!) had some form of a budget to stick with along the way. Admittedly, not every couple is fortunate enough to afford JLo and Sting, but it is important to know where to go for guidance when managing costs associated with your special day!
Over the years, my go-to budget calculators have been those on theknot.com and weddingwire.com, but those can sometimes be overwhelming at the beginning of the process. As a start, I love this slide show from Marthastewartweddings.com to get some preliminary ideas.
Regardless what tool you use, the important thing to remember is that you can always tailor these suggestions to fit your vision, budget and dream as you design your day, your way!
