## Cash vs loan for a party

If you need Personal loan for decor, the interest is part of the wedding cost. Run Wedding budget and a Savings goal timeline. Starting married life with high-APR debt is a choice — make it eyes-open.

## Guest count is the master lever

Food and venue scale with heads. Cutting 20 guests often saves more than switching napkin colors. Put the number in the sheet before mood boards.
