maire d tip

We went in for our final payment today, and our BM told us, for a wedding our size (~190) the maitre d would typically receive a ($900-1200 tip)

She's got to be joking, right?

I think 1200 is a little crazy but i do think
570- 950 is a little more accurate depending on how well they do.

Re: maire d tip

i was told at our RH that you don't truly have to tip but the suggested is $3-$5 per person.

You BM told you this?Is it just me or is that rude?

The same thing happened to me at my limo company. The man who was there when I went to make a payment told us we should tip the driver about 100 per trip.

I thought it was so rude. Does a manager of a restaurant ever tell you how much to tip a waiter?

I like this. Even if the norm is $3 - $4 dollars, I want the service to reflect it!

Re: maire d tip

Wow that a bit high. I would do $4 per person so you can be in the middle. I mean so how good they do the big day!

I was actually told $2-$3, I was going to go with $2.50pp and play it by ear the day of. If they were great then a little more, if not then $325 it is!
