I gave extra. Nick told be that gratuity is actually split between 4 people... so the maitre d only gets 75 out of that money.
Usually people tip 1-3 bucks on top per person.

ANOTHER QUESTION FOR PAST BRIDES:
im just starting my seating and want to know how many people did you all sit at a table??.. i know some may be different - 9 or 10 people..
i think 12 is too much...i want my guests to be comfortable and not squeezed into the table..
thanks!

We had mostly 10's and I think 3 tables of 12 and a few 11's. The 12's weren't crowded AT ALL. My mom's table was a 12 and she said it was fine!

I had mostly 10 but some had as little at 7 and some had 12. It just depended on who got along with who etc.
