Terms
Terms of use
Updated November 9, 2026. Applies to freeweddingcalculator.com.
Using the calculator
The calculator is free. You may use it to sketch a wedding budget for a celebration you are planning. The figures are a planning estimate built from published averages and from the numbers you type. They are not a quote, a contract, a guarantee of what a vendor will charge, or financial, tax, or legal advice.
Your responsibility
You are responsible for the guest list, the contracts you sign, and the deposits you pay. Read a vendor’s scope, service charges, and cancellation terms before you rely on a line in this budget. Replace our starting amounts with real quotes as you get them.
The spreadsheet and the newsletter
The on-page budget does not require an email. The Excel file is created only after you submit a valid email and check the box agreeing to the weekly newsletter. That checkbox is consent, described in the privacy policy. You can unsubscribe later. We do not sell the list.
Acceptable use
Do not abuse the download endpoint, attempt to break the site, or use it to send mail to people who did not ask for it. We may refuse a request that looks automated.
The site and the numbers
The writing, design, and spreadsheet layout are part of this site. Published averages are cited from The Knot’s 2026 Real Weddings Study and are used as facts, not as an endorsement by The Knot. We can change the copy, the model, or these terms. The date at the top is the current version.
No warranty
The site is provided as is. We do not warrant that the estimates, the spreadsheet, or the site will be error-free or available without interruption. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for decisions you make with a vendor, or for lost deposits, based on this calculator. Some places do not allow certain limitations, so those limits apply only as far as they are allowed.
