Event Budget Planner
Organize the money side of an event by tracking planned and actual expenses in one place.
Plan the money for an event
Household Toolbox keeps this with your other household records under one account.
What you can track
Create an event with a budget
Name the event, set the date and type, and enter the budget amount.
Track vendors
Keep a vendor list and split an expense across vendors when more than one is involved.
Record planned and actual expenses
Enter expenses against the event so spending stays with that occasion.
Use categories and types
Organize spending with categories and event types you can edit.
Attach invitations, contracts, and receipts
Event files stay on the event. Receipts and invoices stay on the expense.
Move past events to history
Inactive events stay in history. You can reactivate one when you need to edit it again.
Pin the date and export a PDF
Add the event date to the household calendar, and export a PDF of the budget you choose.
How It Works
