I was just wondering...Who do you tip on your wedding day (besides the place and all) and how much is customary? My FH and I are trying to figure out how much everything is going to cost!!!

Re: Who and How much...
I wouls love to know too.... all I do know is that it is too much! I understand tipping for outstanding service but this has gotten ridiculous! I have seen some people post their amounts and they added up to big $$$$!

Re: Who and How much...
There are several tipping threads -- I'm sure if you did a search you'd find some info. Not everyone tips the same - you should tip what you feel comfortable with or what you feel your vendors deserved. That said, this is what I tipped on my wedding day:
Maitre'd $2 - $3 pp Bridal Attendants $50 each (I had 2) Limo drivers (20% tip included in charge but we tipped above that) about $100 Photographers $100 Video $100 DJ $100 Florist delivery $25
All told the average tipping that goes on on a typical wedding is between $1000 - $1500 so I would plan for somewhere around that much, depending on the size of your wedding.

Here are a few past tipping threads that might also help you all out! .
Someone answered on the '05 board with a very good numbers and about everyone you need to tip, try doing a search over there.
