I think a thank you card is really nice, especially for someone like the bridal attendant, maitre de, photographer.. The people with you alllll day.

But now I'm thinking about it.. How do you know what to thank them for?? Maybe just cash in an envelope on the day of then send a nice thank you with your other thank yous lol

You could do a general statement, thank you for your services for my special day......
Or thank you for all that you did today......

I definitely think it should be based off the services provided instead of a set price. Weddings are expensive enough as it is.

Day of the wedding - Cash tips
For my engagement party, I wrote out tip envelopes and wrote on them how much I wanted to tip depending on service. I left them with my MOH (also my sister, love her) and she was able to give them out for me. I ended up giving everyone everything in the envelopes, and then gave even more because I wanted to tip our bartender who was AMAZING and gave the entire wedding party TONS of shots even though he wasn't supposed to.I do have a question, though. My contract for the wedding states that the entire wait staff makes more than regular waiters and that I don't have to tip them. Does anyone else's say this? And do you guys tip anyway?
