Tipping at Weddings - Disney World

babybelle · #1 June 11th, 2003, 15:53

Help! Now that my wedding is only 2 weeks away I have 101 questions.

How much is normal to tip the minister/justice etc conducting the wedding? How much is normal to tip the Limo driver? How much is normal to tip the stylist doing hair, make up etc.

How much would a taxi from Grand Floridian to Vistana Village cost (for after meal etc). Can we take our car to GF and park there altho' we are not resident guests?

HELP!

My SIL used this recently as her guidelines - I don't see taxis on the list though: http://www.ourmarriage.com/html/tipping.html

Hope it helps...

You most definitely can take your own car to GF. I would let them Valet Park it for you since it is such a special day. I believe I paid $6.00 the last time I used Valet parking and that is good ALL day. Just tip the valet a couple of bucks when he/she retrieves your car.

Ah well - we didn't get Jimmy Johnston - Doris Peterson officiated our ceremony. She was lovely and the ceremony was very nice

Hi Babybelle,
I seem to recall that there is a parking lot especially for the wedding pavillion, you make a right turn before the GF entrance.
Best wishes for the big day.
