The Wedding Budget Tracker is a six-tab Excel and Google Sheets workbook for planning what an Indian wedding will cost. It tracks every expense by function, estimate against quote against payment, adds GST and a contingency buffer, and shows what the total becomes if your guest list grows or shrinks.

Real couple experience

“Five functions, two cities and my mother’s guest list, and this planner kept all of us sane.”

Wedding Budget Tracker Dashboard tab with sample data: total budget ₹25,00,000, cost before GST ₹18,61,000, GST ₹2,54,340, ₹1,73,126 left after contingency, and the start of a function-wise spend table (Roka, Tilak / Sagai, Engagement).

What is inside

Six tabs, and you fill in only a few of them. Setup is filled once and every other tab reads from it.

  1. 1Welcome. Short instructions inside the workbook.
  2. 2Setup. Your names, date, city, total budget, guest count, GST and contingency, and which functions are happening.
  3. 3Dashboard. Total budget, what is left after contingency, payments due in the next 30 days, overdue payments, and spend by function, category and who is paying.
  4. 4Budget. Every expense on one row: estimate, vendor quote, GST, paid so far, balance due, payment status and next due date. It starts with 59 pre-loaded line items.
  5. 5What-If Guests. The total at 20% and 10% fewer guests, as planned, and 10%, 20% and 30% more, plus two rows for any guest count you type.
  6. 6Charts. Six charts that update from your other tabs.

Who it is for

  • Couples and families who want one place for every quote, advance and balance instead of scattered notes and chats.
  • Two families sharing costs, because every line has a Paid by column and the Dashboard totals each side.
  • Anyone still deciding the guest count, since the What-If tab shows how the total moves before you commit.

How it works after you pay

Questions people ask

Is it an Excel file or a Google Sheet?

Both. After payment we email you a Google Sheets copy link and an .xlsx file for Excel. Open the Google Sheets link, choose Make a copy and work in your own copy. Please do not upload the Excel file into Google Sheets: use the link for Google Sheets and the .xlsx for Excel.

How does GST work in the budget tracker?

Each line has its own GST % column. The tracker applies 18% by default and calculates GST on the higher of your estimate and the vendor quote. If a quote already includes GST, set that line to 0%. GST rates differ by service and by vendor, so confirm them with your vendor or CA. This is a planning tool, not tax advice.

Can I change the formulas and the function names?

Yes, you can rename functions, categories and families on Setup and add your own lines on Budget. The Dashboard is protected without a password so you cannot overwrite its formulas by accident; in Excel use Review, then Unprotect Sheet if you want to edit it. You type in the other tabs.

What is the difference between this and the All-in-one Wedding Planner Kit?

The tracker is the budget on its own: six tabs. The Kit is a 27-tab workbook that also covers guests, vendors, itinerary, seating and more on one dashboard. If you only need the budget, the tracker is enough. If you want everything linked together, see the Kit.

How and when will I receive it?

Pay online by UPI, card or netbanking (PayPal if you are outside India). We email your Google Sheets copy link, the .xlsx file and a quick-start guide to the address you enter at checkout, normally within a minute and always within 24 hours. Check your spam folder if it does not arrive. PayPal payments are checked by hand first, then sent on WhatsApp.

What if something does not work, or I want a refund?

If a formula does not work or you break a cell, message us within 24 hours of delivery and we will fix it. If we cannot fix it within 24 hours of your message, you get a full refund. The full wording is on the Refund & Cancellation Policy page.
