Did you do a percent of their price or a flat rate. Just want to gauge what to give her. She doesn't own the company, she is an employee.
I was thinking $100 for the DOC and $75 for her asst. but I am curious to see what other girls do to see if I am on target or not.
Do you tip if she is the owner??????
I think so... I am tipping my photog and he is the owner. I just think its a little extra something for working really hard for us. Not necessary but I am.
we tipped 250 and 100 for her assistant...they were both fantastic!

WOAH that would've been more than half the cost for me! I feel a little like maybe I did something wrong now...
I tipped $80 (I believe) on top of the cash balance I gave her. I have a hard time remembering exactly what I gave everyone but I think that was it.
I really went with the 'do what your gut tells you' as far as tipping goes.

she had given us a gratuity guide with a whole list of vendors on that was a range for DOC and assistant...we tipped at the high end of that range becuse we were SO happy with them...we also won her services so we felt we should show her how much we appreciated her with our tip! Ultimately, it's up to you....i was just sayin what we did

Do you think you still would have given $250 if you had paid for her services? I am just curious because I don't want to give just $100 if I should be giving more. Do you remember what the range was? My DOC did not put a range on hers so I wasn't sure. She just wrote whatever we think is appropriate. So I don't want her to be disappointed if I only gave her $100. Thanks for your input!

I absolutely would hvae given her towards the upper end of the range even if I had paid for her. In fact, she was so good my Dad said 'I would have paid double for her.' (And he thought wedding planners were pointless!) She was fabulous and I had a really special connection with her. She deserved every penny and truthfully I wish I could have given her more. Sandra, i never said you did anything 'wrong' at all...a tip is osmething that you have to give based on what you feel comfortable with. To the original poster, the range was 100-250...you give what works for you and im sure the DOC will be grateful!
