So in case some of you were not aware. You can go on to American Airlines website and contact their group rates department for a 5% discount for your guests.

 

It will actually say weddings . You fill out the form with all your info and after a coiple of days they send you a agreement. Your not legally bound to anything but the cool thing is after about 10 ppl book you can get a free ticket for yourself .

They also send you inserts to put in your invitations with the discount code.

 

Thought I'd share

 

Oh that is awesome to know!!  Thanks

I locked a date and made a deposit in March LOL and than got a TA to do all the group rates after I looked around at pricing.
