I booked limos over the weekend, and a 20% gratuity was added on to the total. Do I still need to tip the drivers on the day of the wedding? If so, how much? Another 20%? We are having 3 cars. Thanks in advance!

We had the same deal - we booked and have a 20% gratuity. As far as I know, that's all. We have to pay the final balance to the limo drivers on the day of - but the tip was already figured in. what I have heard though is it is not unheard of to throw each driver an extra $20 on that day if he/she goes above and beyond what you expected. That choice will be up to you.

Personally, I wouldn't. But it's all up to you. I think 20% is MORE than enough of a tip...just like with a waiter/waitress - if I really liked the service they get 20%, if I thought the service could have been a little better, then they get around 15%...but like I said, it's up to you...
