Most couples are surprised by how much of the day is food and venue. Catering and drinks usually eat the biggest single slice, with the venue and rentals close behind. Together those two often run roughly half the whole budget, which is why the per-guest catering number is worth watching: trimming the guest list is one of the fastest ways to free up real money.
The percentages here are a sensible starting point, not a rule. If photography is the thing you will care about in twenty years, move money toward it and pull it from somewhere you care less about. As long as your slices add back up to 100%, your total stays honest and the breakdown shows exactly where every pound, dollar, or euro is going.
