Wedding Tipping 101: Who to Tip, How Much, and When!

Welcome to The Bouquet Toss, the podcast that helps you plan your wedding day your way! We’re your hosts, Jess and Sari, and each episode, we dive into wedding traditions and trends to help you decide what to keep and what to toss for your big day.

 

This week, we’re tackling one of the trickiest wedding topics: tipping your vendors. From how much to tip your hair and makeup team to whether you should tip your photographer, we’re breaking down all the etiquette and expectations so you’re never left guessing.

 

Episode Highlights:

💸 Who gets a tip—and who doesn’t?

🤔 The difference between service charges and gratuity

💁‍♀️ Tipping solo entrepreneurs vs. teams

💌 Non-cash ways to say thanks (think gifts, reviews, and shoutouts!)

🌍 Tipping dos and don’ts for destination weddings

📝 Budgeting tips to make tipping stress-free

 

Plus, we play a spicy round of “Keep It or Toss It” featuring tip jars, tipping your flower girl (?!), and more!

 

Whether you're feeling totally lost or just need a tipping refresh, this episode will help you show your gratitude without breaking the bank.
