Re: who do I tip and how much?

You might want to post this on the vendor board. They usually give good advice about this.

This is from I book I have but I don't know if it is accurate.... And I think usually you don't have to tip if they are the owner of their own company???

Caterers and recepion site managers: 15-20% usually have included in their contracts. If they have been very helpful you may want to tip 1-2 per guest as an additional tip.

Musicians and Dj's maybe tipped if their performance was exceptional. tips run about $25.00 pp. DJ's are usually tipped about 15-20 % of their fee.

Florist,photographers and bakers are not usually tipped. You simply pay a flat fee for their services.

Limo drivers 15-20% of the total bill

Thanks for the info, I'll post it on the vendor board.
I'm most confused about the reception site, they charge 18% gratuity but who does that go to, the banquet manager, the servers...?
If anyone has this straightened out please advise.
Thanks very much!
