My RH said that with a wedding my size we can do $2-$3 pp, but I am only having 114 people...

Ok my hall is charging us a flat fee for the Matre D...does that mean I have to tip him on top of that? What do you girls think?

How did you go about tipping the waitstaff separately? I want to do this b/c I have heard from many waiters/waitresses at catering halls that the maitre D doesn't divide his tip up-keeps it all!



I asked the BM how many would be on the waitstaff and factored in 25 dollars for each of them. I totally had faith in my BM and gave her the envelope - but if I had any doubts I would have just handed it to the captain. :)
