You can save on the coat attendant, I think $50 would be plenty esp. since you're having about 70 guests.

I did my finals yesterday and I asked about the tips. They said I just have to tip the mait'rd and the bridal attendants. everyone else is taken care of as part of my price. (bathroom attendants, valets, coat checks, etc.)

MY LONG POINT...Also check with your Bouquet manger

I think it sounds about right except I agree, that is a bit much for the bathroom attendant.
