Welcome to wedding planning season! The beginning of each year is one of the busiest times for planning out the big day because a 30-40% of all couples get engaged between Thanksgiving and New Year\u2019s Eve. No matter when you get engaged, all couples start the planning process off with the same question: how much does a wedding cost? There\u2019s no clear-cut response \u2013 but there are three major factors that can help you pin down an answer that works for you: where you\u2019re getting married, what you *must<\/strong>* have, and how many guests you invite.<\/p>\n

Where You Are Having Your Wedding Will Impact Wedding Costs<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to Cost of a Wedding, the average amount spent on a wedding in the United States is currently around $33,306, and this number can climb even higher depending on where you\u2019re tying the knot. Here are the average wedding prices from cities in the US:<\/p>\n

Butte, Montana: <\/strong>$16,420<\/p>\n

Jacksonville, Florida:<\/strong> $19,185<\/p>\n

Phoenix, Arizona: <\/strong>$26,082<\/p>\n

Kansas City, Missouri: <\/strong>$40,529<\/p>\n

Chicago: <\/strong>$49,151<\/p>\n

New York City (Manhattan): <\/strong>$53,626<\/p>\n

The closer you are to a big city or an area with a higher cost of living, the more you\u2019re going to shell out. This is because wedding vendors in these places have to factor higher pay for their employees, higher taxes, increased transportation costs, etc. into their costs.<\/p>\n

Blooms Tip:<\/strong> Looking for some room in your budget? Get creative with ways to cut your vendor costs. Is there a wedding at your venue the day before yours? That couple may be willing to split the cost of rentals for chairs or drapes so the vendor will only have to pick them up and drop them off once. No luck? Ask your musically gifted cousin to play guitar at the cocktail hour so you can hire a DJ\/band for four hours instead of six!<\/p>\n

What Are Your Wedding \u201cMust Haves\u201d?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Now, start taking a look at the big picture. Will you be able to afford that stunning but pricey wedding dress you have your heart set on? First things first, you should start working out an estimate of the total funds you\u2019ll have and hashing out who will be paying for what. How much can you and your fianc\u00e9 realistically afford? Are your families going to contribute as well? Having these conversations early will help you create a realistic budget and save everyone a few headaches. From there, allocate how much you will spend on each aspect of your wedding \u2013 use The Knot’s<\/a> breakdown as a guide:<\/p>\n

Reception:<\/strong> 48-50%
\nCeremony:<\/strong> 2-3%
\nAttire:<\/strong> 8-10%
\nFlowers:<\/strong> 8-10%
\nEntertainment\/Music:<\/strong> 8-10%
\nPhotography\/Videography:<\/strong> 10-12%
\nStationery:<\/strong> 2-3%
\nWedding Rings:<\/strong> 2-3%
\nParking\/Transportation:<\/strong> 2-3%
\nGifts:<\/strong> 2-3%
\nMiscellaneous:<\/strong> 8%<\/p>\n

Now that you have numbers to work with, it\u2019s time to figure out what elements are most important to you as a couple.\u00a0Once you get your \u201cmust haves\u201d in place, you can set real limits for the other areas. If your favorite band is not in your music budget, are you willing to skip the videographer? If your dream venue is out of reach, maybe rent your dress instead of buying it! Keep in mind that you shouldn\u2019t let traditions take over your budget if they don\u2019t work for you. It\u2019s perfectly fine to send out a beautiful Save the Date email if you don\u2019t want to stick stamps on 150 envelopes!<\/p>\n

Blooms Tip: \u00a0<\/strong>Don\u2019t forget that there are lots of ways to save within each category. One of our favorites is DIY flowers, of course! Creating your own arrangements and bouquets can save you hundreds. A bouquet that may cost $400 at a retail florist can cost only $100! Anybody can create their own arrangements \u2013 check out our blog and head over to DIY Flower 101<\/a> for inspiration and guidance!<\/p>\n

How Many Guests Are You Inviting?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The amount of mouths you have to feed on your bid day has a direct effect on your venue cost, plain and simple. Starting to feel like you might have to file for bankruptcy just to pull off this wedding? Start minimizing the guest list. Here are some people who frequently don\u2019t make the cut:<\/p>\n

Friends you haven\u2019t spoken to in the past six months<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ex\u2019s or former flings<\/strong><\/p>\n

Work friends you don\u2019t see outside of work<\/strong><\/p>\n

Anybody who is anything less than 120% happy for you<\/strong><\/p>\n

Remember when we told you to figure out who\u2019s paying for what early on? This can come in very handy if you\u2019re trying to scale back the guest count. If you and your fianc\u00e9 are footing the bill entirely on your own, you should feel in no way obligated to accommodate the guests picked by anybody else.<\/p>\n

Blooms Tip:<\/strong> Reign in your guilt to trim your list. Your wedding day is about you and the love of your life celebrating your new beginning. You should not start this journey together in major debt just because some people may or may not be offended that they weren\u2019t invited!<\/p>\n
