OMG I so am!!!! LOL I had a nightmare last night that I forgot all my jewelry that goes with my dress. I've been up since 4:30, and yesterday it was the same. It seems like it's going soooo fast and there is so much left to do!!!

I know!!! I have all the "major" stuff done...but a bunch of little stuff to do and then I keep thinking, "what am I forgetting?!?!"

Thanks for this! I've been wondering about this whole tip thing. But the thing is, I've gotten a package that pretty much inlcudes everything with gratuity already inlcuded. Do I still need to hand out tips to everybody?

Good question, kara? Who specifically are you wondering about? I think it depends on who you are talking about, what gratiuity is included, if the person went "above and beyond" your expectations, blah blah blah!

Exactly! I don't even know! haha. My package includes the officiant(some people still tip them), the photographers, the DJ, coordinator, the bar, and the food of course. I know all these people normally get tipped but I don't know if I have to do it for all of them since my contract states gratuity is already included. But I do know that if they do an exceptional job, especially for the bartender and DJ I think, then of course I'll give them a tip. I am so clueless! haha

Wow! You really did a whole package!! Maybe you could find out exactly how your gratuity in the contract is split up? I have read that you still tip the officiant--even when included--photography is a big ???? for me too. I have the photographer for the ceremony (Cashman) in my package and then I also have Joey Allen for 8 hours....and then there is my violinist (included in package) but I don't think gratuity is included for that---but then all I find is to tip them a percentage...but I don't know how much they are getting paid so I can't do that...AAAHHH!!

sorry, late reply! got busy with work this morning! lol.. anyhoo yes i did the whole package.. that way the planning would be a bit easier on me.. and theyre all great vendors. my venue has gotten so much good reviews.. and we love pictures, especially me.. we actually get 2 photogs for the entire day. I have read in a couple of articles that when the owner of the company are the ones doing the job too, like the photographers and DJ, then there isn't really a need to tip them, as for if it was just their employees. I think that's a great question to ask my venue though! I'll keep that in mind! Thanks! And maybe you should ask too how much they're getting paid! This tipping thing is so complicated to figure out!!! LOL
