I'm getting quotes from different limo companies and Im so confused lol. Some include a 20% 'service charge'.. Is this gratuity? And if they don't include that, what should I expect to tip the drivers? The knot says 20%... Say the quote is $1K.. Do I tip $200? One car is more expensive than the other so does one driver get more than the other or do I just split it between the two? I just want to know how much I'll end up spending in the end. Any insight?

Limo question..
If you are going to tip 20% I would just split it evenly between the two drivers. Unless one is driving a lot more than the other for whatever reason. My opinion though, I plan on tipping each driver like $100 which might end up being less than 20% but they are literally making two like 20min trips each so I think that's more than fair.

Limo question..
Thanks ladies.. I cleared up with the company charging a 20% service charge that it is not gratuity. So idk what it is, but I won't be going with them since they're 20% more expensive than the other quote I have, and not as well-reviewed. We're thinking about going with Camelot (after we go see their cars to make sure).. Anyone have any experiences good or bad?

I haven't looked at limos yet but I crossed Camelot off my list based on a previous brides review. I guess the cars had no AC in the middle of summer. here's the review http://www.liweddings.com/chat/topic-magical-wedding-day-updated-with-photosjune-13-2014-wedding-review-crest-hollow-831001-1.html

we ended up booking with Camelot. The woman was very accommodating and the limos were pretty nice. The price was one of the best around for what we were looking for.

Personally- I didn't care for who I dealt with at Camelot- they showed me dirty cars, and the guy I met with was too pushy when it came time to book. Prices were decent, but I didn't appreciate being pressured into a decision. Maybe go for a price quote and try and see if another vendor would price match?

We booked with Camelot. Honestly I wasn't interested in the limos so I just called a few places and went to Camelot because it was right by my job and they were the cheapest quotes. We got the party bus and Rolls Royce and were happy with them when we saw them. We are literally going to be in it for 30 minutes so it worked for us! I'll let you know after our wedding!
