Debbie's Wedding Planner
Lodging
Not every motel provides high quality lodging, and certainly not at affordable prices. Our lodging advertisers have been scrutinized and we feel confident that you would be more than happy with their accommodations and their prices.
The Internet is a powerful tool that can be used to research and plan your wedding. However, we ask that you use the Internet for gathering your information and then purchase your products and services for your wedding locally. Local businesses that have made “Greetings!…from Debbie” Wedding Planner possible create local jobs; they pay local taxes; their employees volunteer in numerous community clubs and organizations; they contribute to a variety of local charities (including youth sports and non-profit organizations); and they provide service for the products and services they sell.
You may not receive the same treatment when securing something on the Internet.
Thanks for your consideration and cooperation!

Q&A: Attendants: Lodging for the Wedding Party? (article)
Most of my wedding party is from out of town. They will most likely need to stay in a hotel for two to three nights. My parents think it is the attendants' responsibility to pay for their rooms. I think that the bride's family is supposed to pay for the out-of-town bridesmaids, while the groom's family pays for the visiting groomsmen. Who is responsible? Would it be okay to split the cost with the attendants as a possible compromise?
