Wedding Account

DuckMatt

Hi,

My fiancee and I are currently planning our wedding for 2011 and although have a fair bit saved and set aside, we plan to save more in the meantime. A couple of people have recommended that we set up a joint 'wedding' account. Are there any regular savings accounts people can recommend to me for this?

Thanks
Matt

If it's 'new' money (as opposed to recycling existing savings) ....... then a Regular Saver (best currently 4.5%) is likely the best. Full article here :-

...... either joint or one each?

Since you're gonna be using the money for your wedding in 2011, joint account would be good as well. You can even use the same account even after the wedding.

If you get a regular saver be sure to look at the penalties for withdrawing money, or missing the regular payment. You will need to start paying deposits as soon as you start booking things, so need to be able to access your money without too much of a penalty.
