Where the numbers come from
We checked each vendor price on the vendor's own site on 5 October 2026, and a second reviewer checked them again. Ranges are what vendors publish at each level; your quotes will depend on dates, hours and extras. Guo Da Li is our estimate from shops' package and pastry prices. The banquet uses each venue type's middle price per guest for your day and meal, for full tables of 10: some venues' prices come from their own price list, the rest from a published 2027 banquet price list, and the calculator shows how many of each.

Questions
Where do the prices come from?
From vendors' own websites and price lists, checked on 5 October 2026 and re-checked by a second reviewer. Prices on wedding listing sites and blogs aren't used. The banquet line uses 2027 prices for Singapore venues: some from the venue's own price list, the rest from a published 2027 banquet price list, and the calculator says which.
Do the prices include GST?
Banquet prices include service charge and GST. For most other vendors, the published price doesn't say whether GST is included, so ask before you book.
Does it take ang bao into account?
No. Guests' ang bao are gifts, not payment for their seat, and what you receive varies a lot. Plan as if you'll pay the whole cost yourselves.
What isn't included?
The emcee, the groom's suit, invitations, door gifts and the honeymoon. We'll add them once we've checked enough published prices.
Can I keep my budget?
Yes. Copy the link to come back to the same answers, or save it to a free Vows.sg plan, which keeps your guest count and budget range and tracks planned, agreed and paid amounts for each item.
