Rather than carrying so much cash around the day of - did anyone ever give checks?
yes you can give checks. Just make sure they are payable to cash unless you know the full names of all your vendors ( or their employees)
bump for more info
oh ya thanks!!! good idea
I don't see there being a problem. It is a service. You are giving them money in the form of cash right? Since the check will be made out to cash. Now with the new law in place that it doesn't take 3 days for a check to clear, I think it would be fine. Honestly, if it's in a envelop they won't even notice until everything is over anyway.
i definitely dont see a problem with it at all. I will probably just have my DOC hand out cash envelopes but checks are totally fine IMO. my FH works for GE and he has gotten tips in the form of a check before. like the other poster said, make sure its made to cash though!
Personally, I suggest that you do cash. I know it's a lot to carry around but I think it's appreciated even more for it's convenience to the vendor...especially since some may split it further with people behind the scenes. If you do decide to give checks...I would leave them blank until you aready to hand them over - then go into the bridal suite and write them out. Thank God we brought extra money with us because all of our vendors went above and beyond so we put more into each envelope.
good point

The more I thought about it the more I fealt that cash is more appropriate..I thought about giving a check for convenience on our part,so we didnt have to carry all that cash around (not becasue we wouldnt have the money for tips). But then I realized that they are spending the entire day with us,,and they dont deserve to have to run around to cash a check..
