Wedding budget planner

Wedding Budget Planner for Expenses, Income and Real Decisions

Keep your wedding budget realistic with online tools for planned amounts, actual expenses, income, guest payments and category-level spending.

A budget planner built around wedding categories

A wedding budget needs to handle estimates, actual expenses and changing priorities. Ellie lets you plan high-level budget categories, add real expenses and monitor the remaining amount as decisions are made.

If your wedding includes guest contributions or ticket-style payments, Ellie can also connect payment information to the budget view so income is easier to understand.

The goal is not just to record numbers. Ellie helps you keep the budget visible while planning tasks, guest counts and payment settings change.
