Absolutely. Yes. And I think that's something that you have to kind of go in with, right? I always say to couples, think of the three priorities that you and your partner can align on and where you want to spend.

You're like, Oh, yeah, I kind of knew that that was going to come up later. So I'm OK with that. We can move on. And I think it just makes you feel better about where you are putting those dollars.

OK, tell me more about the not budget advisor. Yes. OK, so it is such a power tool. It's providing couples with a wedding budget estimate. of what actual couples spend.
