How should we split a wedding budget?
There's no right answer. The venue and the food and drink usually take the biggest share, but if photography or music matters most to you, give it more. Start from a split, then change it.
What's different about budgeting for a wedding abroad?
Exchange rates, deposits paid far ahead, transport for guests and paperwork for a legal ceremony. Keep part of the budget spare for the unexpected.
Does the budget include guests' travel?
Usually not: guests normally pay their own way there. Decide early whether you're covering any of their accommodation.
