My parents got a Save the Date a few weeks ago for next summer that is asking for the guests to send a deposit if they will attend. I think its at al AI but i have never heard of this... I thought guests just pay their own way..

they have to send the bride & groom the deposit?
never saw that before- usually they give you a travel agent name to assist you and you can book through there or you can book on your own

I always thought that they paid there own way and made arrangements for themselves, not through the bride and groom.

They can send a deposit just to hold there room. I am going to a destination wedding and ask for a deposit to hold our room. It is common? They probably have a really good rate.

This actually happened to us. Fh's BM is getting married on a cruise next year. They are asking everyone to give a deposit, so they can get the best deal for everyone. But, you need to send deposit now and the cruise will be sometime between April-June of next year. we want to go..but don't know what our situation will be next year.

This was the same as the last destination wedding I went to...they sent us the info and everyone booked by themselves.
