The Answer to a Common Wedding Vendor Gratuity Question

“How Much Should I Tip My Wedding Vendors?’ This is probably one of the top 5 questions we receive from our “Day Of” Coordination Couples.  So, we created the chart detailing Wedding Vendor Gratuity Guidelines for our couples to use as they plan for this budget line item. This chart is free, compliments of Howerton+Wooten Events.

Do You Have to Tip Your Wedding Vendors?

When you start booking your wedding vendors, you may wonder which professionals expect a tip and which do not. After all, you’re already investing in talented experts who bring your vision to life. So, do you have to tip your wedding vendors? The short answer: tipping isn’t required, but it’s always appreciated.

Tipping is a Way to Say Thank You to Your Wedding Vendors

Tipping serves as a genuine way to thank those who go above and beyond. Many wedding professionals pour their heart, time, and energy into ensuring your day unfolds flawlessly. While some vendors include gratuity in their contracts, others leave it entirely up to you. It’s always best to review your agreement first so you know exactly what’s covered.
