Wedding Loans
Get your rate before you apply - it won't impact your credit score
Don’t have sleepless nights over your happiest day.
Planning your wedding can be a wonderful experience, and with so many options for your big day it pays to plan ahead. The planning takes time: The average Australian couple spends 1 year and 5 months working out the details. Yet despite all the preparation, an amazing 60% of people still go over budget on their wedding1. The trick to succeeding? Make a plan and stick to it.
What to budget? According to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, the average wedding in Australia costs around $36,2002. Other research suggests we should then add around another 25% for the honeymoon.
Whether you want to go all out or you’re looking to create a careful budget, Pepper Money is here to help you finance your big day, with little stress.
