Sales Tax and Gratuity

[Beep]

Hi, sorry for asking this - I know it has been posted but I can't find it and the search thing isn't working.

Can someone tell me what attracts the gratuity charge please? I'm presuming that everything has the 6.5% sales tax added to it. Do Disney charge the gratuity on the price of the Escape wedding, and any extras such as floral and the bottle of bubbly etc?

Also, can anyone tell me if there is any additional taxes and/or charges with the prices quoted from Carolyn Allens for tux hire, dress steaming and things. How about Beaute Speciale - do they have any extra charges?

Thanks for helping, I'm trying to get an accurate budget worked out and need to add these in.

Hi! The price of the Escape wedding includes tax and gratuity. Anything extra like more Champagne or extra floral incurs tax, and there is probably a service charge on the Champagne because it falls under food & beverage.

Carolyn Allen's charges sales tax but no gratuity for tuxes and steaming, and makeup artists don't charge tax but you usually tip them up to 20%. Theoretically you don't need to tip them if they own the business, but some people do anyway.

Hope this helps!
