Wedding budget tracker. Know exactly where every dollar goes.

The budget tracker keeps every quote, deposit and final payment against the vendor it belongs to, shows you what is paid and what is still owing, and keeps the receipt with the payment. It is on every plan, including Free. Free covers up to 100 guests; Manage is $149 and Elevate $399, each paid once, not a subscription.

The budget: the total, what is spent and what is left to pay, then each vendor under its category, the venue, catering and photography first, with its amount, what is paid, what is owing and the status Partial.

  3. PaidPaid in full.
  4. OverdueA payment date has passed with money still owing.

A guide to typical spending, across 20 categories.

Type in your total, and the guide shows what weddings typically spend on each category: the venue, catering, photography and the rest. It is there for reference only, and nothing goes into your budget unless you add it.

The budget guide for the wedding's total: a ring of every category, then each with its typical share in dollars and per cent, the venue a quarter, catering and photography next.

How the budget connects to the other tools.

  • Find your vendors

    Name the vendor on a cost and they join your wedding team as booked, and when you book a vendor from the directory, a budget line is made for them.

  • Run sheet

    A vendor on a budget line counts as booked, so you can tag them on a moment in the run sheet.

  • Your guest list

    Your guest list counts who is coming, which is the number a per-head catering quote is built on.

  • The budget calculator

Common questions about the budget tracker.

How do I track wedding payments?

Log each vendor's quote, deposit and final balance against its category. Each line's status (Upcoming, Partial, Paid or Overdue) is worked out from the amounts and the due dates, and the totals budgeted, spent and still to pay sit at the top.

Does the budget link to my vendors?

Yes. Every budget line can be linked to a vendor from your shortlist or our directory of Australian wedding vendors, so your budget, your vendors and their paperwork live in one place instead of three different tools.

Is there a budget template to start from?

Yes. The budget guide shows typical spending across 20 categories. If you would like a blank template you can download without an account, use our budget calculator.

Two more questions

Can I attach receipts and invoices?

Yes. Upload PDFs, images, Word and Excel files, up to 10 MB each, against any budget item. Each one stays with the payment it belongs to, so when your florist asks for the quote back in May, it is one tap away.

Can I export my budget?

Yes. Export a CSV on the desktop site, or copy the table, for your records or your accountant. It holds the categories, the amounts, what is paid and each status.
