Should you tip your wedding vendors? How much should you tip them? When do you give them the tip? Read below to find out.



My name is Elizabeth Jones and I am a wedding planner based in Northeast Alabama. Here to be your expert guide on your wedding planning journey. One of my sweet brides is getting married soon and asked me

"How do I tip my wedding vendors?"

so I looked online for a tipping guide to send her, but I couldn't find one that I totally agreed with, so I decided to make my own!


This is a general tipping guide so every dollar amount may not be accurate for every wedding. Determining factors can be location and your wedding budget.


Should I Tip My Vendors?

Yes, if you are comfortable with tipping and if it's not already included in your contract. Always check your contract to see if gratuity is included in your total. If you are unsure about tipping everyone, choose the vendors that you feel exceeded your expectations and worked hard to give you a perfect wedding day! If you can't fit tipping into your budget, opt for thoughtful gifts or kind messages after the wedding day.

You now have an idea of what to tip your vendors and when, but how do you get this to them and keep it organized? Prepare them beforehand! Place each tip into an envelope labeled for each vendor. Give these to your planner to pass out when appropriate.


Your vendors will love any tip, gift, or kind review that you give them. We all want you to have the most magical wedding day.
