Coleman Petropoulos: i always tip ! weddings or not ...And i believe that they should tip you !!
Lynn Melbourne: There should be no reason for anyone to tip you unless they want at a wedding. The company we go through has a tip built into the package price so the bartenders we hire get paid plus tip. You shouldn't be expecting more. Maybe you're not working for the right people.
Shena Etulain: For my venue, a tip for each of the servers - including the bartender - was included in the price. Plus, they were tipped heavily by the guests. They are being paid for their time, tipped on my bill, AND tipped that night by my guests. Why should I tip on top of that?They should provide their best possible service regardless. If people are impressed, or like them, then maybe an additional tip is warranted. But why would I give them an ADDITIONAL tip before they provide any service? They shouldn't need "incentive" to do their job the right way....Show more
Cl! ement Viscarro: I support it. Servers make less than 3 bucks an hour in most states (there are a few states that do enforce minimum wage for servers. I wouldn't mind so much if tips were taxed in those). If someone stiffs their server and pays cash, the server loses money to taxes because the IRS assumes that the server made at least 17% of the sales in tips, and is taxed on that. Its riddiculous to receive less than 3 dollars/hour and then run the risks of having to pay taxes on money you don't make. And yet, that is how most servers and bartenders work. Peace...Show more
Arden Strachn: are you thinking of having a cash bar cause thats not what I'm talking about. Yes a cash bar at a wedding is tacky. But everyone should tip the bartender.
Nicolas Cooley: If you are part of the package that the venue offers, maybe people just assume that they dont need to tip? I know with our venue, a staff gratuity was added on as a % of our total cost, so we felt all the staff! at the venue would get a tip. But you definitely deserve a ti! p- whether it comes by way of the venue or directly from the bride & groom themselves.Then there are always some people who feel like theyve "paid enough" and wont tip because they feel the food & drink are overpriced to begin with... which is not related at all to the people serving it.. but there are some cheap-o people out there like that....Show more
Melvina Bieri: Urgh, that´s so tacky. Its a contracted service. Its your employers´ job to make sure you´re well paid. Can you imagine inviting your friends to your wedding and expecting them to tip for their drinks?TACKY!
Noah Deni: I did not at my wedding, because the venue we had it at included the bartender in the cost. We also had to pay a 20% tip on top of it. (it was not an option, it was in the contract) so, I assumed part went to the bartender. Also, you pay a high fee for the open bar, and all the do is hand you drinks. When I go to a bar, I tip cause the bartender is not making as much as if I pr! ivatly hired him....Show more
Blair Abdi: At one of the few weddings I have attended that had a bartender (I go to a lot of Mormon weddings, lol) the bartender had a tip-jar kind of thing on his counter. I'm sure he was being well paid by the bride and groom, and I never ventured over for a drink, but it seemed like he had a few tips in his jar (glass, whatever it was)
Torri Tippey: WHat the F*** dont ask us ask the venues that make alot of money from us and pay you crap. The venues contract out there bartenders and djs I am not paying anyone anything extra it's enough I have paid venue taxes for SERVICES (which doesnt make sense why I pay taxes on a service) and 20+ gratuity charges plus other venues I have seen charge a bunch of other fees if you dont have min etc. Therefore, harass your venue to stop being greedy and oay you more.
Forest Duttinger: Your tips have gone down because the economy is in the sh*tter!I always tip a dollar here or there... ES! PECIALLY when the bride and groom are fitting the bill for drinks.BTW I! used to bartend... another reason I tip. I know the bartenders don't see that 20% service charge added to the bill. The "house" keeps that. Bastards!I worked a wedding at a country club (Absolutely amazing!...Sherwood Forest theme; they had $40k in trees alone) Anywho... the bride and groom gave each server/bartender a $40 tip in an envelope!...Show more
Renita Sefton: If you do the bartending, just add a little extra to the fee to cover the tips... some restaurants do that so I'm sure you could too... I used to serve and had the problem with people thinking 10-20% was enough, or thinking that they didn't need to tip on buffet days because they got their food(what about greet, seat, got drinks, checked up on them....)Goodluck!I never thought of tipping a DJ because they do make alot. A person I knew DJ'ed and He made a killing....Show more
Blaine Connett: Its like tipping the host since you are invited to the wedding..its not like going to the bar as you have i! nvited yourself there and you tip the bar tender.
