Some of the most frequently asked questions I get from Brides, Grooms, and their families are: "Which of my vendors should receive a tip?" This is truly a personal decision. If you feel as though your vendors have done a wonderful job in making your day special and run smoothly then it is courteous to tip them (but not required). "How much should I tip?" Below is a guide on what is standard in the wedding industry. Keep in mind this is only a guide and feel free to tip however you see fit as well as what is in your budget. "Who should distribute them?" If you have hired a wedding coordinator, this is something that should be done by them. If not, a parent or the groom will usually handle this. Below is a standard guideline of percentages.
Bartenders 10% of total liquor bill
Bathroom Attendants $1.00-$2.00 per guest
Catering Manager $100-$200
Coat Check Attendants $1.00-$2.00 per guest
Makeup/Hairstylist 15-20% of fee
Limo/Bus Driver 15% of fee
Musicians/DJ 15% of fee Ceremony Music $25-50 per musician
Photographer/Videographer 10-15% of fee
Valet/Parking Attendants 15% valet; $1-2 per car
Waitstaff $20+ each (distributed by banquet manager)
Wedding Coordinator 10-15% of fee

This small investment is worth it to not have to say cheers to your new husband with the hotels not-so-stylish flutes. Mara and Edge are our personal favs.
