all for £2800!!! and i think we may also get 10% of that price as its in october :D:D so excited back to feeling positive now :D

Ours was £1000 deposit as well x

Now Mrs Cobb!!!!!! :-D
- CommentAuthorGriff
ours was £500 deposit.... yours sounds costly allready xx
- CommentAuthorGregorysGirl
I think £500 is the most common deposit required, though I went to one place in Stamford and they were asking for £1000, which we were not prepared to pay, and it is just as well as we had to cancel our original wedding and we would have lost it. On the up side it is taken off the final amount and it just means less to save up for at the end but it is a lot of money to ask up front, not many people can afford to come up with that amount. Good luck in finding something else! x

We paid £2,000 deposit.

You can always negotiate though - the worst they can say is no.

hi, ours is £500 and that seems to be the main price around that we have seen. i am hoping to pay another £1000 off before xmas though so we dont have as much to pay off next year and we can concentrate on the other big price....honeymoon! :-) xx
