Vendor tipping

JJAF, on July 29, 2019 at 12:32 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 4
Anybody have a good rule of thumb for tipping people who come to set up? (Cake, florals) Do you tip day-of, or day after?

    We're tipping each of servers and bartenders $20; our venue will give us the final number of staff before the wedding. Our DJ refuses any type of payment, but I'm going to slip his wife some money to cover their hotel room for the night. Same for our photographer, she won't let me tip her. But I'm sending her gift card as thank you anyways lol.

    Hi there Smiley smile

    Check out this WeddingWire article, it’s super helpful - Exactly How Much To Tip Wedding Vendors: A Complete List.

    Tips should be handed out after the service is rendered, so day-of would be best! You could ask a member of the wedding party to be responsible for handing out the tips if you don’t have a day-of coordinator. You and your FS will be super busy on the wedding day and having someone handle this on your behalf will ensure it gets taken care of!

    Do you have a day of coordinator?
