How much should I save each month for a wedding?

To save ₹15,00,000 for a wedding in 2 years, you'd set aside about ₹62,500 every month — roughly ₹2,084 a day. Use the calculator above to plug in your own target and timeline.

How long will it take to save for a wedding?

It depends on how much you can save each month. Saving ₹62,500/month reaches ₹15,00,000 in 2 years. Save more each month and you'll get there sooner — the calculator shows your exact finish date.

Does this assume any investment returns?

No. This is a straight-line savings plan — it assumes you set aside a fixed amount each month with no market returns or inflation. That's the safe, predictable way to plan a short-to-medium-term goal where you can't risk the money. For longer goals, a SIP may help your savings grow faster.

Where should I keep the money while I save?

For a goal you'll spend within a few years, keep it safe and accessible — a high-interest savings account, a sweep-in fixed deposit, or a liquid fund. Avoid equities for short-term goals, since a market dip could leave you short right when you need the cash.

How can I reach the goal faster?

Automate a fixed transfer right after payday, redirect bonuses and windfalls straight into the goal, and track your spending to free up a bigger monthly surplus. Even a small increase to your monthly amount can shave months off the timeline.

How the math works

A savings goal is simple straight-line math: divide what you still need by the number of months you have. For this example, ₹15,00,000 ÷ 24 months = ₹62,500 per month. Already have something saved? Subtract it first — the calculator above does this automatically.

Tips for saving for a wedding

Open a dedicated wedding savings account so the money isn't mixed with everyday spending.
Add a 10–15% buffer to your budget — wedding costs almost always run over the first estimate.
Redirect bonuses, gifts, and tax refunds straight into the fund to finish months early.
Lock in big vendors early; advances often let you fix today's price against inflation.
