5 more days!

I really can't believe how fast its come..... still seems like it's so far away.

A quick question - do you think I should tip the bridal attendant even though we are not going to be in the bridal suite except to put stuff there? Would $25 be too little? thanks.

Re: 5 more days!

all the best. My hall recommends $100 I say more like $25. I do not see the need for them, but if they think they need to be there so be it. I am right behind you with only 10 more days.

All the best to you

I think $25 is okay if you're not utilizing it except for 'storage.'

Enjoy every minute of your day, be sure to step back every once and a while and take it all in. Be sure to come back and tell us how everything went (and post pics, of course!)

All the best!

Re: 5 more days!

How exciting are these last few days? I hope you have a fantabulous day!

you can tip whatever you wish, but you may want to have some extra cash on hand...I would never have believed how much the bridal attendant did for me. she followed me around during pictures and took my flowers at any time so I could walk or if I didn't need them...she brought us drinks all day long...really great...I tipped $200, but its really up to you and the service they provide...

Re: 5 more days!

I say $25 is good. I don't feel I need them either but my Hall gives me 2.

I will tip each one $50. and the Matre'D will get 2$ per guest.

I am right behind you also, Only 16 days left!!!

Good luck and best wishes!

Thanks everyone!
I promise I will post a complete review of the Milleridge Cottage and everything else. If I have time I'll try to do it Monday if not I'll definitely write when I get back from St. Lucia.

This board has really been helpful and I appreciate everyones opinions and ideas! thanks.
