Start from the money you have and see how it divides, line by line.

## Example: ₹50 lakh for 150 guests in Kerala, 3 nights, 3 functions, December

| Line | Share | Amount |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Rooms for your guests | 43% | ₹19.5 lakh |
| Food and drink | 14% | ₹6.45 lakh |
| Venue hire | 11% | ₹4.93 lakh |
| Décor and lighting | 14% | ₹6.16 lakh |
| Photography and film | 6% | ₹2.8 lakh |
| Music and entertainment | 6% | ₹2.54 lakh |
| Guest care and transfers | 7% | ₹3.08 lakh |
| Planning fee | 9% | ₹4.55 lakh |

A wedding like this usually costs ₹42.4–92.8 lakh (planning figures, not a quote). Rooms and food take the largest share because both scale with every guest.
