  • The 3 Factors That Will Make or Break Your Wedding Budget
    Dec 9 2025

    In this week’s episode of For Real, I Do., Brittany Cole gets candid about one of the biggest questions couples and families ask: what truly shapes a wedding budget? After years of planning large-scale Indian and fusion celebrations, she’s breaking down the three core factors that have the greatest impact on your overall investment, whether you’re planning a modest multi-day wedding or a luxury, six-figure weekend.

    Brittany starts with Eventrics Weddings’ North Star framework — clarity, curation, and confidence — and explains how these pillars help couples make decisions that feel aligned, intentional, and grounded in what matters most. From there, she dives into the biggest budget drivers:

    Guest count, the single largest lever that determines your per-person investment.
    Number of events, especially those tied to food and beverage.
    Location, season, and venue tier, which influence everything from pricing flexibility to logistics.

    With real examples, thoughtful guidance, and a reassuring tone, Brittany helps you understand where your money actually goes and how to align your budget with your priorities. You’ll walk away with a clearer sense of how to plan intentionally, invest wisely, and make choices that support a wedding weekend that feels like you.

    If you’re navigating conversations around budget or trying to set realistic expectations with family, this episode will feel like a deep breath and a blueprint.

    Thirteen years ago, we were asked to steady a multi-day celebration for five hundred guests. While the venue and vendors were chosen, the families needed a presence on site - someone to ensure calm, clarity, and care. We were welcomed into homes, met with aunties and uncles, listened to many voices, and watched two families become one. It felt less like a service and more like being entrusted with a legacy. Word traveled from that weekend, and the work found its home.

    We’ve remained committed to the same idea ever since. Weddings of cultural depth deserve planning that feels human - quiet, precise, and deeply respectful - so newly forged families can be fully present, together.
