The Wedding Journey - The Big "B"

To all couples who will be getting married/ just got engaged, I think the most important bit when it comes to wedding preparation would be the 'Budget'. This would be the first step that both couples need to determine before starting off their wedding planning. Be it a simple or a Hollywood make alike wedding.
Some couples tend to split the bills equally, others will rely solely on the guy and some really really lucky ones will have their parents sponsoring their dream wedding! I wish we fall into the latter category! Haha...I guess I would just have to continue dreaming.
Some of the more important things which we have looked at for our wedding are in the list below and the percentage of our budget falls within that category is shown below as well

1) Wedding band/ring - 25%
2) Photography - 20%
3) Wedding Attire (Including Gowns and Suits) - 20%
4) Ang Pau -10%
5) New Furniture - 10%
6) Honeymoon - ??? (whatever that is leftover I guess)

Be mindful that for every set aside, do allow some buffer as there are bound to be some ad-hoc expenses. We are only halfway through the wedding prep and still have another 6 more months to go. We are also looking for new funds to fund our wedding every month. It is a loooooong journey. Nevertheless, I am enjoying every single moment of it.
