crest hollow conveniently gives you an envelope for the maitre d.

i actually thought it was pretty tacky that they did this. they also give you one for the bridal attendant and said that we should give her at least $150.

we'll see how i feel that day

yeah, it is kinda tacky. esp since my contract says that it is customary to give $3-5pp for the MD and $100 to the BA. maybe they get stiffed a lot ? they do have a lot of corporate events or huge weddings during the week too. i went there on a tuesday once and they were having an orthodox wedding with 1000 people

Our contract already has $2 pp included for the MD. I didn't notice this till recently bc it was written so small I could barely see it. They prob get away with getting more of a tip that way. I'll give an extra $1-2 pp
