I have had my own catering business (small) for the last 11 years. Very few times for private parties have I ever been tipped. Of course food is excellent and service the same. I'm thinking it's because it's my business and that's why I'm not getting tipped. Here's the question. I have two friends, who have helped me before when I cannot be at the party, who are doing this Halloween party for me. I know in advance that this hostess plans on tipping. She wanted me to lower the price a little (I changed the menu of course) to meet this group's budget because she wanted to be able to add the tip and taxes and still come within what they want to spend. Ok, do I give the two ladies who are doing the party for me ALL the tip (which seems fair) or do I keep it and tip them something different? Thanks for your comments.
