The average wedding budget is the based on the size of the guest list and the location of where you are going to be married and hold your reception.
Using a terrific little tool (found at the bottom of this page), I have found the average wedding budget and breakdowns for a few different areas. Pick the area closest to the kind of area you live in and see what the average cost of what a wedding in that area will cost. Now there are some things listed here that you might not want to include, so you'll just take them out of the total budget average to get a closer number to what your average wedding budget will be. These averages are based on the spending of other couples and not vendor prices. Should you choose well-experienced professionals, designer labels, popular event location, unique or custom products and services, prices can fluctuate between 50%-100% more. I've tried to choose a least expensive area, a more expensive area and the most expensive area, so you can compare where you live and match it up to the examples, or you can use the cool tool at the bottom of the page. Pick Your Area and Number of Guests:Buffalo, New York
Fishers, Indiana
Beverly Hills, California
Average Wedding Budget by Number of Guests:| # of Guests Invited | Average Budget |
|---|
| Less than 50 | between $16,757 and $27,929 |

I hope these figures can give you some idea of how much your own wedding is going to cost, but I have something even better for you to try.It is based on United States zip codes, so if you are located in the U.S. you can input your zip code and get averages based on where you live. Remember, the costs in a smaller town area are going to be less than a major city, so you can use the reports to compare and maybe plan in a nearby less costly area.
If you would like to be in more control of what will be included in your wedding budget, then use this next tool. You can check off only those items you will be including in your wedding planning budget.
