Wedding costs can spiral fast if you do not set a total number before you start making decisions. In this episode, Ryan walks through a practical framework for budgeting a wedding: set your overall limit first, rank your priorities as a couple, break the total into spending buckets, and build in a 5 to 10 percent buffer for hidden costs.Ryan and Aaron cover the conversations most couples skip, like aligning on family contributions early and agreeing on trade-offs before talking to vendors.
