(1) For those whom have more than one limousine, how much do you plan on tipping. Royalty says that gratuity is included but it's nice to give a little extra something to your personal driver. I have three limousines from Approx 1:30-5:30 (paying O/T) and they are sending the driver back to pick us up. What do you think is appropriate???
(2) When do you tip the Florist? I was thinking about this today and it's not like they wait around for you to show up or do they. I would assume that after they set up they leave. I'm confused on this one. Should I bring the tip with me or wait till I see there work and send it later?

Re: (2) Gratuity Questions
I think tipping the limo is totally up to you. If they are already getitng a tip then you really dont have to and the florist I never heard that you have to tip

Really --- I thought everyone was suppose to get a tip. Wow I could be saving big bucks if that's the case. I projected 18% gratuity for all my vendors in my budget. Was I wrong?

Thanks I need all the help I can get. I thought everyone.
Wow!!! I think I over estimated. I was giving out anywhere from $300-$600 a vendor. I hope that information is correct or my vendors might hate me. All my vendors own the Business.

Re: (2) Gratuity Questions
I will have 2 limos from Royalty (plus the pick-up after the reception), and I plan to give each driver $30-$50 depending on the service
as for florist, someone will deliver your bouquet (plus others' bouquets, corsages, boutoniers) to your home, right? That person gets a tip, and you might want to say that there's a bit more in there for whoever sets up the church and/or RH.
