Wedding Budget Calculator

Plan your wedding budget by allocating funds across categories like venue, catering, photography, and attire.

Plan USD amounts from your entered budget and category shares. Each share applies to the total rounded budget. Shares are not automatically normalized; these are planned amounts, not vendor quotes or recorded expenses.

Amounts are in USD. The entered bill or budget is rounded to the nearest cent first; half cents round up.

The combined requested amount is rounded to cents. Category cents are distributed by fractional remainders; ties follow the displayed category order. Category amounts add up to Total Allocated, and Remaining Budget equals budget minus Total Allocated.

Entered budget: 20000 USD
