Volunteer Bartender

Sarah, on March 2, 2020 at 1:14 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 8
We'll be serving beer and wine for our reception, the beer will be in keg form and in bottle form that'll need to be poured into cups (no glass allowed in Hall). My aunt and uncle have volunteered to oversee the bartending for the reception, they've both had a lot of experience professionally bartending and seem excited to help. Since I won't be paying for the services of a bartender, should I give them a cash tip or thank you gift? Should there be a tip jar that would allow them to earn tips? This is a lower budget wedding.

    You should give them a cash tip. Don’t rely on your guests to do it.

    They deserve a cash tip from you and your new spouse.

    I would give them a nice gift and thank them vocally during the reception.

    Thanks! A tip jar seemed too formal, and not in running with the more casual nature of the wedding. I like the idea of a tip or gift better. I'll be sure and thank them during he reception, as well.

    I think a cash tip from you would be best to say thank you.

    I definitely agree with a cash tip.
