My dress and haven't it altered so it fits me awesome.
I've seen too many friends wedding photos where they're dress was noticeably too big or too small...mainly in the chest area. My dress will fit me correctly.
I initially thought you meant monthly budget and was going to say, rent duh. :P
The church. We got married in DH's church. I hadn't expected it to cost so much ($850!), but frankly, if we had to, would have paid double because having a church wedding was non-negotiable for us.
Photography was the top. I want great pictures to look back on for the rest of our lives. The next was the venue, but that included rentals, linens (almost all), catering, etc
For us, it was finding a reception venue that would fit everyone but not require their catering. We went "mid-grade" with pretty much everything, but having enough room for everyone was the first thing we checked off the list and we said, "Since the venue was this much, we have $X left for everything else."
Reception food, drink, linens etc.. Half our budget went to that.
We also prioritized taking care of our wedding party. Hair, makeup, gifts, etc. we didn't want them to feel put out.
Transportation and decor were our two smallest categories.
