Editorial policy

Our standards for sourcing, accuracy and independence.

Last reviewed: October 2026

Sourcing

Every fee, rule, date or benchmark must trace to a primary source with a link and an "as of" date. Vendor and venue cost ranges are labelled approximate and attributed to a named third-party source. Unverifiable claims are not published.

No fabrication

We do not invent authors, customer reviews, testimonials, ratings or "we tested it" claims. Example budgets are labelled illustrative and use no real names.

Neutrality on vendors

We do not rank vendors or claim any is the "best" or "cheapest". Guides come first and compare options neutrally; where a page carries a partner quote request or affiliate link, it says so, and the information shown does not depend on it.

Religion and culture

Tradition guides describe customs neutrally and respectfully. We do not issue religious rulings; for questions on a Muslim marriage we refer readers to MUIS and qualified Asatizah. A food or venue is described as halal only when it is on the MUIS certified list.

Corrections & updates

We fix errors when found or reported, and date every change. See How we research & update.
