Who and how much do we tip?

OK so we are updating our budget and want to include tipping as well.

Our venue charges 18% gratuity as well as charges $1.50 / head for the matrid gratuity

I know there is the DJ - but how much?

Who else and how much should we include in budgeting tips?


TIA Ladies!

I would check in regards to the Maitre D - Typically their tip is $3-$5 a head!

We tipped ...

Maitre D
Photographers/Videographer (very generous - they are editing and what not even after the wedding and spent all day with us!)
DOCs
DJ
Altar Boys/Girls
Limo Drivers
Cigar Roller

We did not tip the florist as she was the owner or the cake delivery person (our cake was not included with our venue).

I think thats it ... and it SURELY added up!

yeah the matrd tip is included... maybe my number were off but it was like another $250 added to our contract for a 70 person wedding.

we have the DJ tip already


so just photog and videographer.

Awesome!

Thanks
