Can anyone share what their real prices are with tax and gratuity? For instance what is 85 ++ ? 95++ ? 100++ ? 110++ ?
I get all these quotes and I need to know the real price.
Someone sent me a file zip. but I couldnt open it on my computer. It is too slow. Thanks in advance!

Re: What is the REAL price per person?
Depends on what your service charge is but say it's usually 18%-20%. So, at $85, you're looking at a little until $110 a head, $95 about $122 a head, and so on.

Re: What is the REAL price per person?
That figure is based on $85 base x 18% service x8.75% tax. It equals $109.08.

Re: What is the REAL price per person?
I agree it is so annoying to figure out the prices!!
I was quoted $105 for Venetian Yacht Club for Sat nite. they charge a 20% gratuity/service and then you add tax. it came out to be 137pp

This is how you would get the real price per person at Westbury Manor (each facility may be a little different):
$85 X 1.18 X 1.08625 = $108.95
Price per person times service charge times tax

The gratuity can vary - I've never seen it less than 18%, or more than 20%. My hall said tax is 8.75%- I would think that should not vary but who knows.

Be careful and check your contract carefully.... Not only does my contract say 18% gratuity then 8.25% tax... it also has a set extra gratuity for the matre'd ($500)! I didn't realize that when I signed and now I'm not too happy about it!
Thats what our hall did, it was 20% gratuity, 8.75% tax and $2.00 pp for matre'd

Wow! They add in maitre'd's tip? NRC recommends $3-$5 per guest as tip, but they don't ask you to pay upfront. IMO, that defeats the purpose of a 'tip'.

This is why it REALLY pays to be brutal with your guest list and not get married on a Saturday night... it can be thousands and thousands of dollars cheaper to get married on a Friday off seasons.
We had 96 people at our wedding on July 4th at the Watermill. It was a Monday and daytime. With tax and gratuity for the prestige menu it costs us $74. pp. My entire wedding reception with dj, flowers, favors, etc. costs $10,000. The same wedding on a Saturday night with two-hundred people would have cost about $35,000 to $45,000 just for the reception. I had a Watermill wedding and a European honeymoon... total cost for my entire wedding less than $35K and I really didn't skimp on things just planned carefully.

Tax in Nassau & Suffolk County (and NYC and Westchester) is different. State tax is same everywhere, but each county then adds its own sales tax on top of that.

Just so you know tax changed recently so they should only be charging you 8.625 for tax.
