Or is it alright to assume that the vendor charges cover their services and you needn&#8217;t add gratuities into your already-stretched <a title=\"Simple Tips for Budget Wedding Planning\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/27\/simple-tips-for-budget-wedding-planning\/\">wedding budget<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Rules for Wedding Tipping and Gratuity\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/17\/4221\/\">Wedding tipping<\/a> is a tricky area, with no set rules on what is right and what isn&#8217;t. More often than not, it is up to the couple to decide whether they want to tip a vendor or not. If you aren&#8217;t really sure of what to do, this guide will help you recognize who you should tip and who you can skip.<\/p>\n<p><b>Ground and set-up staff<\/b><\/p>\n<p>These people do most of the hard work, like moving or setting up equipment and furniture at the venue. So, they deserve a tip for their efforts. You can budget roughly $10 per person. This list also includes anyone who delivers gifts or the important items from your baker, florist etc.<\/p>\n<p>At <a title=\"Unique DIY Wedding Reception Decorations\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/30\/unique-diy-wedding-reception-decorations\/\">your reception venue<\/a>, unless you have taken an all-inclusive package, you will have to pay the staff in charge of serving wine or cutting cake, separately. In both cases, it is common practice to tip these attendants, and you can put aside roughly 15% of the food expenses for this purpose. To avoid double-tipping, check your contract for whether it includes service charges and make your decision accordingly.<\/p>\n<p><b>Hair and Makeup<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Similar to when you <a title=\"Why Hiring the Right Makeup Artist is Important: A True Story\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/29\/hiring-right-makeup-artist-important-true-story\/\">visit a beauty salon<\/a>, these staff expect a tip for their service. How much you pay will depend on how well you think they performed the job.<\/p>\n<p><b>Florist and Baker<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It isn&#8217;t usually necessary to tip your florist or baker, as their rates normally include gratuity. One way to know whether it would be appropriate to tip the person you are dealing with is <a title=\"Wedding Invitations and Other Wedding Budget Bombers\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/23\/wedding-invitations-and-other-wedding-budget-bombers\/\">to read your contract<\/a>. If it includes service charges, you do not have to tip again. Another thing to remember is that you needn&#8217;t tip a vendor who owns the service, but it is right to tip employees.<\/p>\n<p><b>Wedding planner<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It is optional to tip your <a title=\"The Secrets of an Event Planner: Planning your Wedding like a Professional\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/19\/the-secrets-of-an-event-planner-planning-your-wedding-like-a-professional\/\">wedding planner<\/a>, but you can always do so if you appreciate the effort the team put in, to make your wedding a success. You can also show your appreciation by giving them a nice gift instead of cash. Don&#8217;t forget to send a <a title=\"Wedding Thank You Note Tips\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/06\/wedding-thank-note-tips\/\">thank you note<\/a> to your wedding planner if you loved what they did, and make sure you do this soon after the wedding. A good review and photos for their portfolio would be nice too.<\/p>\n<p><b>Photographers and Musicians<\/b><\/p>\n<p>It is optional in both cases, but if you are happy with their service or if they exceed your expectations, don&#8217;t hesitate to tip them. Again, if <a title=\"Hiring the Right Wedding Photographer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/bridal-shop\/22\/hiring-right-wedding-photographer\/\">the photographer<\/a> is the owner of the business, you can always skip it. For the musicians, if they did a splendid job and kept the evening alive and active, you can tip them.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from the customary tips, you should appreciate anyone who has made a special effort to do the job well. Don&#8217;t think of the rules if you think they did a splendid job, and also send out a thank-you note afterwards. In a business where customer satisfaction decides a vendor&#8217;s business prospects, it will be well-appreciated if you can provide them a good online review or recommend them to your engaged friends<\/p>\n<p>To obtain more wedding advice and tips, and also find everything you need for your wedding, visit us at <a title=\"Best for Bride\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bestforbride.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Best for Bride.<\/a><\/p>\n<input type=\"hidden\" id=\"letreach_post_category\" value=\"Wedding Tips\">","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is it obligatory to tip every vendor at your wedding?
