How to Tip Your Wedding Catering & Bar (Without Overpaying)
Catering contracts often have an 18โ24% Service Charge. Crucial check: a "Service Charge" is frequently kept by the venue as operating revenue and NOT given to servers as gratuity. Check contract line items.
Important: Check Your Contract Service Charge!
Service charge/gratuity is already paid in contract! Do NOT tip another 18โ20% ($1,500+). Instead, give a direct flat cash bonus of $50โ$100 to the banquet captain and $30โ$50 to each bartender/server for personal recognition.
