Tipping

Yes, the cost of a wedding can be expensive at times. However, when an outsdide vendor goes out of their way above and beyond the call of duty, it is always nice to receive a small tip but not expected. If an outside vendor is an owner, you are already paying them their fee. If the outside vendor sends an employee of their company and that person was especially helpful, then it is nice to give them a small tip. If an event takes place at a restaurant or resort, the employees salaries are not that big, so if any employee at the resort or restaurant was especially helpful, then by all means, give them a little something. When you go out for dinner to a a restaurant that already has added a 15% service charge to your bill, if your waiter was especially attentive and helpful, a tip should be given because that 15% we were told is divided up among the kitchen staff and servers. Bottom line, tip what you can afford is always rule of thumb when you have arranged a wedding or special event.
