Step 2 – Work out how much
to save each month and start
early
Once you've set your wedding budget and
worked out the cost of each item, work out
how much you'll need to save to meet this
target or how long it will take if you have a
monthly sum in mind. You need to be real
about what you can achieve and how much
you can afford every month.
For example, if you both plan to have
N1,000,000 wedding in one year's time,
each of you would need to save around
N42,000 a month. However, if you start
saving two years before the wedding, you'd
only need to save N21,000 individually each
month.
