There are ten thousand things to plan for before, during, and after your wedding. This beautiful milestone thus requires about ten thousand things that need to be taken care of money wise too. And for all these pre and post wedding needs, a personal loan or a wedding loan is a convenient financing solution.
When you click on that personal loan apply online button and your loan gets processed and the funds get disbursed, you can use them for whatever purpose you require. There are no restrictions when it comes to personal loan funds. This is helpful because you can use the personal loan for the following ore and post wedding planning and expenses.
Pre-wedding expenses
Can you really get married today without a gorgeous pre-wedding photoshoot that aesthetically captures the love story of you and your significant other? A personal loan can help cover the costs related to your pre-wedding photoshoot including the photographer, location, and outfits.
You may want to meet the goal of buying your first home with your partner around the time you are getting married so that you have a beautiful home to start your newly married life in. While you may have saved for the home’s down payment and may have taken a home loan, you may need a personal loan to cover additional expenses such as brokerage, renovations, etc.

You may need to cover the expenses for accommodation and transport for your close relatives and friends who don’t live in the city and are travelling for your wedding. And if you are having a destination wedding, this cost will be even higher. The best part about a personal loan is that you can be eligible for a high loan amount if you have a high, stable income and a good credit score. In fact, you can co-apply for a personal loan with your partner to increase your loan amount eligibility even further.
Post-wedding expenses
After your wedding is over, there are several expenses that will prop up. These include everything from dry-cleaning your wedding outfits and sending gifts and thank you notes to your guests to hosting dinners and parties as newlyweds. When you consider all these costs, they will add up to quite a bit.
The first exciting adventure you and your partner embark on after your wedding is your honeymoon. And because you want this time to be just as special as your wedding, you may put in a lot to plan the perfect travels. You may also like this to be luxurious, an experience to always remember, one where you spare no cost.
Whether you are moving into a new home or your or your partner’s existing home, you may have to invest in buying new furniture and appliances right after your wedding. This can cost a bit and to not cut corners, you can use a personal loan to fund this post-wedding expense.
Taking a personal loan
Right when you start planning your wedding is when you should apply for a personal loan so that it can help you cover all the expenses from the beginning to the end and cover any financial mismatches in your wedding budget. Before you apply for personal loan, however, it’s essential to know what your Equated Monthly Instalments (EMIs) will look like so that you don’t burden yourself and your budget with EMI amounts that may be tricky to meet later. For this, you can use a personal loan EMI calculator. It’s a helpful online tool that calculates your loan EMI in seconds to help you financially plan for your big day and everything that comes before and after.
