Wedding Tip of the Week - January 30, 2010

Beyond your Bridal Party, there are several other people who you will want to thank for helping to make your day special. When discussing tipping, the general rule is that if you hire someone from a company then you tip but, if you hire the owner, then you are not obligated to tip that person. For delivery and security people, $5-$10 per person is customary; for hair and make-up services, 15-20% of the total bill is what should be tipped; the same tip of 15-20% of the bill is also tipped to chauffeurs; valets and restroom attendants generally receive $0.50 per guest; photo and video crew can split 10% of the total bill as a gratuity and your Maitre d’ generally receives $2 to $3 per guest in attendance as a gratuity. Above and beyond the service charge, you can tip $20-$40 per bartender and $20-$25 per server if you would like. It is best to put tips in envelopes beforehand and have a trusted family friend or member of the Bridal Party distribute them discreetly.
