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.

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!

ITA!!!!!
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!
