Re: hold the date deposit

Usually you dont have to pay for a hold the date. Reception halls do it as a courtesy and usually hold a date from 1 day to a week (depending on halls). A deposit is different. You are signing the contract and going forth with plans to use them. That is usually $1000.

Re: hold the date deposit

We put a $500 deposit on our credit card to hold our date. The money would have been refunded if we didn't book, but since we did, the money was put towards our deposit.

I could be totally wrong on this, but I think it was 10%

Re: hold the date deposit

Depends on the hall, Westbury Manor told us $500 deposit, with another payment due within 30 days, if I remember correctly. Jericho Terrace told me the same.

For the Swan Club, George Washington Manor were $1000 deposits

For some reason I think the Milleridge Inn, was $1500 deposit.
