Congratulations on beginning your wedding planning.

Most couples book their venue first and their photographer second, and photographers in a popular area go about twelve months ahead. I work from real UK data — Bridebook’s 10th annual UK Wedding Report, based on 7,000 couples — so your first useful step is to decide the total budget you’re comfortable working with.

If you share even a rough year, I can create a free month-by-month plan using your real dates. What total wedding budget would feel comfortable for the two of you?

Brighton and around 70 guests gives us a helpful starting shape: the venue will drive the rest of the plan, especially catering, ceremony options and the feel of the day. Before narrowing venues, it’s worth setting a comfortable overall budget so we don’t shortlist beautiful options that create pressure elsewhere.

What total budget would feel comfortable for you both? I can then find venues and suppliers around Brighton that fit your guest count and budget.

I can narrow this to Brighton venues for around 70 guests, but I don’t want to use the placeholder £15,000 as though it were your real budget — venue pricing can distort the rest of the day.

What total wedding budget would you be comfortable working with? Once I have that, I can search for a realistic shortlist rather than simply showing the most attractive options.
