In this tutorial, we share the EXACT mock budgets we made together before we got married... using Excel back in 2014-2015! 🤯 We'll also share the benefits of doing this with your significant other while you're engaged (or even while in a serious DATING relationship), as well as tips to help guide you through the process of budgeting with your soon-to-be spouse and how to project what combining your finances might look like when married.
If you're currently engaged or in a serious relationship (heading towards marriage), this tutorial is for you!
