Tips on the day of the wedding

I am so unsure about this---at my reception hall, the gratuity is included in the overall price, so do I have to tip the maitre d' or valet parking attendants on top of that? My hall is the Swan Club if that helps.

Typically, yes. Most halls do include tip but recommend/or even tell you to you tip the maitre d (usually $2-$5 pp).

My hall had a gratuity included but I also tipped the maitre d, bridal assistant and waitstaff. (of course a tip should depend on the how well the service is performed too).
