Limo Tipping....Advice pleaseeeeee

Crashing and I have a question for you married ladies...

My limos (An Escalade 24 pass, Antinque Rolls Royce, and 14 pass Towncar) are booked for three hours. They are driving us one town away to our ceremony (Literally a 5 minute drive). After the 30 minute ceremony, and a few pictures outside the church, they are driving us about 25-30 minutes away to the Reception hall. And then they leave...No pick up at the end of the night or anything. My contract includes a free ride to and from the airport for our honeymoon.

I had planned on Tipping the 2 Bridal party cars $40 a head, and $60 for the Rolls royce being that he's kind of the 'ring Leader' and being that we are the bride and groom, may treat us a bit better.

Are any of you girls tipping 15-20% of the actual bill instead. That would be $280 for me which the three drivers would split 3 ways. Is that crazy? I kind of feel bad not tipping 15-20% but its a significant difference in price. Any feedback???

Also, the contract has a little section that says '15-20% tip not included...Kind of wierd being that it's a tip and not a mandatory expense but whatever...What would you guys do.

Since the tip is included, I wouldn't give 15-20%, what ever extra amount you want to give them would be fine

Some limo companies, one popular one on FB, includes their tip in their price. We used Royalty limo who do not which they explained that if we were unhappy with the service for whatever reason it should be our decision what to tip. We tipped each driver $50 each. Happy wedding!
