Wedding budget · Jordan
Your wedding cost in JOD — and how much to save each month until the day
Enter the number of guests and your prices: prompt mahr, gold, jaha, henna, hall, mansaf, dress, suit, photography, furniture and honeymoon. You see the total, the monthly amount until the wedding and an Excel file with a task list and a guest list. No sign-up.
Want a reminder on each monthly saving day until the wedding?
The calendar file works without an account. Reminders need a free account so we know where to send them.- Fill the «Guests» sheet in the Excel file to know the real number before you book the hall and the mansaf.
- Book the hall with a deposit after the jaha, and ask the Sharia court about the contract papers and tests.
- Review the budget every month: if one item goes up, cut another or the reserve.
Arithmetic only: items = quantity × amount; equal monthly saving from today to the month before the wedding, the last deposit adjusts. No average mahr or prices are stated. Not financial or religious advice.

Questions
How much does a wedding cost in Jordan?
It varies a lot with the mahr, gold, guest numbers, hall and furniture, so we give no average. Enter your numbers and the calculator adds them up and shows the monthly saving.
How much is the mahr in Jordan?
The mahr is agreed between the families and written in the marriage contract, as a prompt and a deferred part. The calculator counts only the prompt part, because it is paid before the wedding.
What does the jaha and engagement cost?
Coffee, knafeh and hospitality on the day of the jaha, and usually the gold. Put them under «Jaha and engagement» and «Gold».
How much should I save each month?
The total minus what you have saved, divided by the months until the wedding and rounded up; the last deposit adjusts.
Is it free? Do I need to sign up?
Free, no sign-up. With a free account you save a copy and get a monthly reminder.
