What is an appropriate deposit for an officiant
Our officiant never indicated the $$ amount for a deposit. What's appropriate to send? Is there a certain %?

Our Officiant didn't ask for a deposit. She booked us and we pay her the day of in cash.

Re: What is an appropriate deposit for an officiant
So anywhere between 20 and 50% is appropriate?

Sounds like the range and it depends on the officiant.
