Wedding Invitations

There are many opinions when it comes to tipping for services at a wedding. Most services are tipped between 15-20%. Sometimes the tip is added into the service.

Here is a brief summary about wedding etiquette and tipping:

• When you rent a place for your wedding or reception make sure to ask about gratuties. They are usually included in the bill.
• Most caterers will also add grautity into your bill - normally between 18-20%
• Tip 15% for the bar, the waitress or waiter at your table, your DJ or band and even the limo driver.
• The person who performs the ceremony will usually have a suggested dollar amount, between $50-75 usually. If they have traveled, additional is customary.
• No need to tip the florist or photographer, unless they have been especially helpful or provided exceptional service.

Tipping is probably the last thing you are thinking about on the day of the wedding. So I’ve heard it suggested that you designated someone close to you to handle this. Tell them what you expect to pay and you can focus on the cermony and the marriage itself.
