Start saving now
If you received a wedding invitation, got a save-the-date, or heard from good friends or family who got engaged recently, it’s important to start prepping.
Even if you’re just a guest, it’s not unreasonable to spend several hundred or more to attend a wedding. From gifts to clothing to travel if the venue is not local, the expenses can add up quite quickly.
If you’ve got a wedding on your calendar sometime in the future, spend the time relaxing and celebrating with your friends and family instead of worrying about your budget. Here’s how you can set goals and track your saving progress.
