Is this insane, or is it just me?!

Original post by nferrandi

We went to our hall yesterday to pick out the menu and while my parents were talking to the maitre'd, the BM handed me a piece of paper about who to tip and wrote in $1200. That money is supposed to go to the maitre'd, 2 captains and the bridal attendent. I'm sorry, but I think $1200 is ridiculous! I didn't even tell my parents because they would have flipped out. I plan on calling my BM tomorrow and giving her a piece of my mind. First of all, a tip is not payment. It's supposed to be a little something that is given based on performance. I will tip them whatever I damn well please and NOONE is going to tell me how much. Am I right for being this heated?

That is ridiculous. I happen to think that the whole 'tip' thing is getting completely out of hand. Pretty soon, we're going to be giving Macy's 'a little something extra' everytime we buy a pair of pants or a new sweater...

Anyway, no, I have never heard of tipping the Captains...
