Re: Tipping vendors

My Hall told me that the only tip for their employees would be the maitre-d the gratuity covers the rest. Though I am not having a bartender anyway.
With the flowers be careful a friend of mine found out 2 weeks before the wedding that the florist she was using required a 30% tip up front!!!
And I agree with Neenie owners aren't tipped. My hairdresser says by etiquet she isn't supposed to accept a tip. (she's the owner)
