Wedding Tipping

trudiuk

Hi

OH and I were wondering if people tip or not at weddings? I've looked online and its pretty much said if you want to, and in America its expected, but I think its expected over here to now.

What is everyone else doing/done?

Who are you tipping and how much? Or are you deciding on the day?

Thanks

We tipped the venue staff £100. But it was a small venue and we dealt with the staff from start to finish and knew it would go direct to them.

Personally i think were paying enough and wouldnt tip unless something extraordinary happens but its up to you

I worked weddings at a hotel and it was always nice to receive a tip at the end of the night.

I tipped everyone who worked at my wedding. The make up artist and hair dresser got £10 and a bottle of prosseco.

We tipped our piper and gave the venue staff enough so each person got £10 as we were so impressed with their attention to detail their level of service and just their general attitude during the whole process

I've not heard of this and won't be tipping anyone. I don't usually tip in restaurants either so no different than usual.

I would only tip if someone did something above or exceptional for what I would expect for their job. Any rudeness, bad manners or plain un civilness and not a chance! Maybe I'm a little harsh but I certainly don't do it as "the norm" and neither do any of my friends. Hope your day goes well :-)

I've got no plans to tip anyone, I can't afford to! If anyone did anything exceptional then I may do, but don't believe in tipping someone for something I have already paid for

I won't be tipping anyone; we've kept our budget within our means and it's stretched as it is. As far as I'm concerned, if I've paid for a service then I get that service. I'm not paying any more for someone doing what we've agreed a price for. If someone made a choice to do something over and above what we've paid for, then I'm afraid it's hard luck. I'm not paying for something I never agreed to.
