Re: Tipping Questions?
I think...
Maitre'd
Bridal Attendant
DJ/Band
Limo
Hair/Makeup
Photog/Video
Florist delivery person $10
I heard that no one person should receive more than $50, besides the Maitre'd and Bridal Attendant.
HTH!

Re: Tipping Questions?
Don't forget your batender. If you have one. The owners of a company it is optional. But I did read no one is to get more then $150. For example if your limos are 2K you don't tip the driver $200. He isn't working for you the way he would be if you had them for 8 hours. I think I am going to give my photographer $200. He is my friend I can't cheeseout. DJ is going to get $100 Matre de gets $3.00 pp, wait staff is $2.00 pp, bathroom & valet get $1.00 per person/car. I am going to put it all in diff envelopes a week before and giving to my MOH to take care of.

Re: Tipping Questions?
According to Martha Stewart hair and makeup only need to be tipped if the girl doesn't own her own business. Supposedly any business owner doesn't need to be tipped.

Re: Tipping Questions?
I still don't know what to do about tipping, and my wedding is Sunday!!  There's a gratuity already added to my bill for the reception hall, so am I done with all of those in-house people (valet, bridal attendant, etc)??
