Today we’re looking for your feedback on a hot topic: Tipping Wedding Vendors! Whether you’re a wedding vendor or you’re a bride or groom, we want to hear from you.

Wedding Vendor readers: How do you feel about clients tipping you? Do you consider it a surprise when you get one, or do you expect it, depending on your area of expertise? Do you find that your clients typically tip you as a percentage or a standard amount? And most importantly: What do you believe the standard tipping guidelines should be for your area of expertise, and for the wedding industry as a whole?

Bride or Groom readers: Did you tip your vendors? Were there specific vendors you tipped and others you did not? When it came to the amount of money that you tipped, what guidelines or suggestions did you follow?

Any and all feedback is highly appreciated! Feel free to comment in response, or email us at hello{at}charmcitywed{dot}com. Your feedback will be used in an upcoming comprehensive post about tipping.
