I am holding a party for my kid at a party venue and when I was filling out the form to set-up my party, there was a section for “Tip” that I may pay on the day of the party in addition to the total amount for the party place. There are two staff members who will be helping with the party at the venue. The tips are meant for them. Am I required to tip? If so, how much?
Good question! Party venues will charge their fees for the party based on the package you want, but often there are staff members at the party venue who will be helping run the party at the place. These employees make their hourly rate of pay, but some venues give the option of tipping if their employees do a great job. It is an opportunity for these employees to earn some extra money. If you are very happy with their service and your budget allows for it, feel free to tip. Standard percentages apply. If you normally tip, 10% at a restaurant, you can keep with this amount or if that is too much given the cost of the venue, simply pick an amount that you can afford and reflects the service offered. Usually tipping at these venues is not mandatory, so do not feel pressure to offer a tip if it is beyond your budget and/or you feel the service was below par.
