Real Marriage Budget vs Wedding Budget

Planning a wedding can take many months and thousands of dollars.  The average wedding budget in America is $30,000. The average age of the couple is near 30. The engagement period is often the planning time for a wedding.  This is the threshold of marriage.  Rather than focusing on just the wedding, take in the full vision of your marriage.  What are the first financial decisions that truly create an investment in your marriage?  What has lasting value?

Focus on investing in your beginning rather than focusing on a one time event.  Start your marriage by making sound financial decisions.  Financial decisions revolve around how to put each dollar to work for you rather than spending aimlessly.
