I would say to up the Maitre'D. Right now you have him @ $1.66/pp. The average is $2-3pp.
Otherwise, it's fine.

I am tipping the Valet but I have my own reasons for that I would up the maiter D also as long as you are happy with the services. I am still stumped on tipping the bathroom attendant myself... hmmmm

Does this look okay to you? Or am I missing anyone? Too low? We are having approx 180 guests.

How may limos and for how may hours? 200 sounds a little high.
I would up the bridal attendant to 75.
How are you dividing up the photo/video tips?

I was thinking the same thing... thanks...
I'm dividing the photo/video as $100 each.
I have two limos (an SUV and a Classic) for 4 hrs... I'm starting to think that's a bit much also...

Are you already paying a gratuity for the limos?? check your contract.. if you are I would tip MUCH less.. if even at all.

I should be paying the tip in the contracted price. I thought all LI companies did this...anything extra is very nice of you since we're tipping them 20% before they even do anythingl!

Do you tip the officiant if they work for themselves? Same with the hair and make up people? they get all the money, so then a tip on top? I am confused.

Apparently, tipping is drama. I didn't realize it but I have to include tips within the larger budget of wedding expenses! Good to know sooner than later I guess.
