Indian Wedding Budget Planner | Excel Template for Haldi, Mehndi, Sangeet & More
Most wedding budget templates assume one venue, one dinner, one date. Indian weddings don't work like that — so this planner doesn't either.Built for couples and families planning a multi-event Indian wedding (in India or the diaspora), this Excel workbook splits one budget across all six functions — Roka/Engagement, Haldi, Mehndi, Sangeet, Wedding Ceremony and Reception — plus the shared costs that dominate real Indian budgets: jewellery, outfits and trousseau, a cross-event photography package, invitations, honeymoon and a contingency buffer.What's inside:- Master Budget — editable typical-% guidance, suggested vs planned vs actual with red-flag variance, and rupee amounts in Indian digit grouping- Vendor Tracker — all ten Indian-wedding vendor categories (venue to pandit to choreographer), three-quote comparison with automatic lowest-quote pick, advance/balance/due-date tracking and status dropdowns- Guest List — 200 rows with bride/groom side, per-event invites and RSVP; live rollups compute the confirmed headcount per event so you quote caterers on real numbers- Payment Schedule — advances and balances by month, with cumulative outflow and a built-in cash-flow chart- Day-of Checklists — 40 tasks across all six events: samagri verification, milni counts, varmala backups, gift custodians- Bonus PDF — the 12-month Indian wedding planning timeline, plus six golden rules of wedding budgetingNo macros. Sample data included (clearly marked, easy to delete). Built for Microsoft Excel 2016+ on desktop; core formulas also work in Google Sheets, though the chart and rupee formatting may display differently there.Created with AI assistance; every formula and figure verified before release.Disclaimer: This planner is a general organisational tool.
