Re: The TIPPING subject.....

Tipping is not standard for everyone, it is totally up to you and your FH and how your vendors perform.

Personally we are not tipping the priest, organist, or the DOC.

We are not tipping anyone 20% unless it is already included in the contract.

Photog: $50
Photog Asst: $25
Alter boys $10 each
DJ: $50
DJ asst: $25
Jazz Trio: $40 each member
Maitre'd: $3 pp
Limos: included in contract
Hair: $25 for me, $15 per each girl
Make-Up: $25 for me, $15 per each girl

Re: The TIPPING subject.....

I had no idea you tip that much!!!

I have a question...does the same guy who delivers bouquets to the house the same guy who drops CPs off at the hall? If not, how do you tip the CP guy?
