Where the numbers come from
National figures are from The Knot's 2026 Real Weddings Study, set to what couples spend in your city or state. Venue fees and service charges are from quotes vendors have sent our couples.
How we estimate this
- Per guest: catering and the bar. The venue, photography, flowers and music follow the size of the wedding.
- Service charge and sales tax are added to food and drink at your state's rate.
- The range runs from couples who spent toward the lower end on each choice to those toward the upper end.
- Day and season move the venue fee, by what venues' own price lists charge for each.
- Not in any total: engagement ring, wedding rings, honeymoon.
