Re: The TIPPING subject.....
If the tip is already in the limo contract is anyone paying them more on top of that?

FH and I agreed no. We are paying 120 for a tip ..20% why do I have to tip and that is alot already! UNLESS he goes out of his way for something maybe an extra 20?? Am I crazy to think this??

How much should we tip our band?
If it's 20%, I'm screwed, that would be a LOT of $$$$$$$$$$$

Re: The TIPPING subject.....
We are probably going to tip:
$100-photographer $100-videographer $5 per person to the Maitre D' $100 each Bridal Attendant
I can't say what we are tipping our DJ and Limo's because both companies read these posts and I don't want them to know until our big day (you will have to wait to find out Vinny and Manny )
And I heard you should tip the delivery guys for the florist, but I don't know yet what we are tipping them. Is anyone else doing this?

Re: The TIPPING subject.....
Are you guys tipping vendors that work independently (for instance, a hair or make-up person that comes to your house and therefore gets the full amount of what you're paying them)?
A lot of my vendors work on their own, and I don't know if it's weird for me to tip them. For instance, I am paying the organist's fee directly to him, so I know he's getting the full $200 (it's not like I'm paying the church and they're paying him a portion of the fee).
I'm totally clueless about this stuff...

Re: The TIPPING subject.....
First off the Gratudity is the tip at the hall as well as the Limo that is why it is called Gratudity 20%
On my contrat I am paying for the hall 541.00 gratudity and 90.00 on the limo that is more then what they should get..
Anywhere it says Gratudity then it is included..

Ok I think we don't tip the Banquet Manager - I think it's just the Maitre'd.
So yay one less person
