How much to tip limo driver?

We have booked a limo coach/bus (21 passenger) for five hours on our wedding day. The total cost is $1,680. I wish I was joking with that cost, but they are the only local company to offer this type of transportation. My sister has physical disabilities and it will be much easier for her to get in and out of this type of vehicle. A 15% tip would be a little more than $250. 18% would be a little over $300. And 20% would be $336. This seems crazy to me. What do you all think would be appropriate? We are generally good tippers, but...

Our wedding is New Years Eve, if that makes any difference.

Ive always thought the percentages too. I guess its where you live. I was on a party bus for a bachelorette last weekend and they were collecting tips and askes how much it should be. I said 15-20% and they were all disgusted. That's what I'm intending on tipping for my party bus but I'm from the city and the live in the country so they didn't see it that way.

We are country bumpkins as well! This is an extremely high cost for where we live. But like I said, my FH and I are generally good tippers and we understand how important it is for people who rely on it. It just felt like that was a huge tip because of the inflated cost of the limo coach. A friend who got married recently paid $800 for all day limo service in our same area. I guess the inflation comes with the limo coach!
