DJ, mine said there will be 4 guys, I don't know who is doing what?
Do you tip your minister even if you are paying him and he keeps it all cause it is at the hall?
My limo company adds 20% gratuity, so how much do you tip the driver then or don't you?
bridal assistant?
Maitre D?
Who else am I forgetting?

Re: How much are you tipping your vendors?
I was wondering the same thing? It can get to be very expensive if you go by what some suggest. I believe that if you do a good job and went above and beyond......you deserve a tip. So use peoples suggestions as a guideline and tip them what you feel is right by the way your wedding goes!

Re: How much are you tipping your vendors?
I was wondering the same thing as well as who should get a tip. Do you tip the MC and DJ?
I am doing the following:
Matre D' - 3 per person. The hall suggested 2-4.
Bridal Attendant- 100-150 (A & B envelopes) depending on how she does.
DJ/MC - ? not sure
Limo - included
Not sure if I am forgetting someone
Edited to say I will decide on a tip for the photgrapher when I get my proofs same with video.

Re: How much are you tipping your vendors?
Thanks for the list.

My limo company adds 20% gratuity, does that mean you should tip the driver as well?

I am tipping my limo drivers even though my company is charging 20% gratuity.
