FAQs



What is a wedding loan?


A wedding loan is a type of personal loan you can use to pay for wedding expenses. So, what’s a personal loan then? A personal loan is just as the name implies—a loan you take out for almost any personal reason at all. You can use a personal loan to pay for a home renovation, consolidate high-interest credit debt, or pay for a vacation or wedding. Offered by many banks, credit unions, and online lenders, personal loans typically range from $5K-$100K and offer fixed rates that allow you to make steady monthly payments over the life of the loan.



Is a wedding loan right for me?


Wedding loans can be a good option for those who have budgeted to pay for their wedding expenses but don’t have the cash on hand to cover immediate deposits or a slew of bills at once. If you have a solid plan for paying back your personal loan and just need some quick cash to bridge the gap, a personal wedding loan may be right for you. Personal wedding loans provide an alternative to high-interest credit cards, and since personal loans are unsecured, you’re not using your home as collateral or putting your equity at risk as you start a new family. Fixed interest rates and steady monthly payments mean there are no surprises—you’ll know exactly how much you owe and when your loan will be paid in full.




What can I use a wedding loan for?


A wedding loan can be used to cover various expenses associated with planning and executing a wedding. This can include costs for the venue, catering, wedding attire, engagement rings, decorations, music, photography, and even the honeymoon. Essentially, a wedding loan provides the funds needed to pay for any aspect of your wedding, allowing you to plan your special day without the immediate financial strain.




What credit score do you need for a wedding loan?


To qualify for a wedding loan, the required credit score can vary. Generally, a higher credit score can increase your chances of approval and may result in better interest rates and loan terms. SoFi typically evaluates your credit score, income, and debt-to-income ratio, among other factors.



How much money can I borrow for my wedding?


The minimum amount you can borrow with a SoFi Wedding Loan is $5,000, and the maximum is $100,000.



Am I a good candidate for a wedding loan?


SoFi aims to revolutionize financial services and make the system more accessible to everyone. Today, we offer significant savings and flexibility to U.S. citizens and permanent residents who reside in the U.S. and are employed or have a sufficient income from other sources with a responsible financial history and a strong monthly cash flow.




Are wedding loans available to cover the cost of a honeymoon?


Yes. SoFi wedding loans can be used for a variety of wedding-related expenses—including your honeymoon. Whether you’re booking flights, accommodations, or a romantic getaway, you’ll have the flexibility to use your funds where they matter most.




Can a wedding loan be used to pay for engagement or wedding rings?


Absolutely. If you’re planning to finance your ring purchase, a SoFi wedding loan can help cover the cost of an engagement ring, wedding bands, or even custom jewelry—without needing to rely on high-interest retail financing.

FAQs


What are the primary components of my credit score?

SoFi leverages the TransUnion VantageScore 3.0 model which includes several key components:

  • Payment History – comprised of whether you regularly pay your bills on time.
  • Credit Age and Type – average age of your credit accounts and mix of various types such as revolving debt and installment debt. An example of revolving debt is a credit card and an example of installment debt is a student loan.
  • Credit Utilization – the percentage of your credit limit you currently have outstanding.
  • Balances – balances on your credit accounts including current balances as well as delinquent accounts.
  • Inquiries – recent inquiries or applications for new credit.
  • Available Credit – amount of available credit that is unused.




Will checking my credit hurt my credit score?

Checking your own credit report is considered a soft inquiry, which does not impact your credit score.


Why does my credit score matter?

Your credit score is used by lenders, among others, as they review your applications for credit and determine your creditworthiness which might influence if they are willing to extend credit and at what terms. It might also be used by landlords, utility providers, and prospective employers.
