QUESTION for ROR brides.....

[SKINNER]

Wondering if you are supposed to tip the wedding coordinator after the ceremony? If you are..does anyone know an approx. amount to tip??

 

What about the bartenders and the cooks?? I have a private poolside reception booked, and I will have 2 bartenders assigned just for my group, same with the buffet...should i tip?? how much?

 

Your thoughts greatly appreciated......

I was wondering the same thing Skinner. Thanks for asking this question.

Some people do and some don't. I would suggest if you are going to tip either to wait until after everything is complete to make sure you are satisfied with everything.

We made the mistake of tipping the photographer prior to receiving our pictures and some of our editing didn't get completed and they were going to have to ship our pictures to us.

We only tipped our wait staff..and that was around $40.00.

I've heard a bunch of different things, there are a few posts about this already. I've heard between $50.00 - $100.00 depending on the size of your party, I guess. I've decided to wait until I get down there and then I'll decide how much to tip.

I've also read that it is better to tip with $$ because they don't get paid a lot. Some people will bring a gift for their WC, which is nice and I'm sure is appreciated, however I think $$ is what they really need. (And don't we all!)
