Re: How much do you put down as a deposit?....
from my experience you are right. typcially the deposit was 500 for most of my vendors. dj was the only one who asked for a little more.

From my experience, your range seems about right but it does depend in some cases what your total is.

the hall - we put $1000 down the band - they wanted $1500 down photo/video - $500 each
I guess it depends on your vendors - and how much they cost you ..

The hall asked for $1500 (I actually just sent in my 2nd $1500 payment yesterday!!) photog/video - I think it was about $800 dj - $1200 minister - $50
That's all that I've gotten through so far.

If it helps you to put down more you can. Some of mine I put a bit more then asked. At my Hall I have had many payments since my deposit. It total to about $9,000 to date.

RH -- the hall had its payment schedule. $1000 to reserve the date; $2000 by the third month, $3000 six months prior to the date; and the rest is due towards the wedding date.
hall -$2000 photog- 1/3 (about 835) video- (my dj is doing my video... 250) and dj (250)

For me it was $750.00 for the hall, the band and the photo/video (same vendor). My flowers will be 20% so I am thinking about $200 max on that.

Whatever the requirement was, I would put down a few hundred more; usually 50% of the bill for photo, dress, and limo. Better to not get stuck with several large bills in the end.
