Celebrating Valentine’s Day isn’t quite complete without putting that extra effort into making it special. Instead of planning the same old dinner at a fancy restaurant, why not add an abundance of extravagance to the night’s plans? The holiday of love is right around the corner and it’s time to start planning your Valentine’s night.

Here are 3 ideas to create a cherished memory for you and your love:

1. Luxury transportation from Limo 805: Regardless of where you go or what you do for your night-out, a limousine can transform your plans from thoughtful to incredibly romantic. Even a low key date can be instantly elevated with a chauffeured vehicle.
2. Elegant dinner: An elegant dinner isn’t an innovative idea, but knowing where to go can be. While it might be tough to get reservations at the top spots this close to the holiday, your Limo 805 chauffeur can recommend little known-spots that will impress both you and your date. If all the good places are taken, there are other romantic ways to plan a dinner, such as being driven to the beach in a limousine for take-out in the sand with candles, flowers, music, gourmet chocolate and an “I love you” poem engraved in the sand.
3. Your date’s favorite: If the person you love has a favorite thing to do, try to incorporate it into your planning. Whether she loves a certain band or he enjoys culinary adventures, Limo 805 can transport you to wherever your plans take you.

Wondering what that tipping etiquette is for Limo drivers? We know tipping can be an uncomfortable thing, but here are the industry trends.

Like many other professionals in service-related industries, tipping a limo driver can be a common practice. Knowing how much to tip can be confusing, especially if you do not frequently travel by limousine. To assist you with this process, here are 4 guidelines from Limo 805 in Thousand Oaks, CA that can help you calculate a fair amount to tip at the conclusion of your reservation.

1. Calculate 20% of the rental cost. In today’s market, starting at 20% of the total bill for a tip amount is considered fair for services that met your expectations.
2. Add more if the service exceeded your expectations. Once you have calculated the 20% tip, you can add more money if the driver went beyond the duties of a typical limo drive, such as arrived earlier than the scheduled reservation time. Additionally, if your party left quite a mess behind, it’s polite to give a bigger tip for the inconvenience.
3. Subtract from the 20% tip amount if the driver failed to meet your expectations. If your driver arrived late, was impolite or the vehicle was unpresentable, subtracting monies from the tip would be customary.
4. If you are splitting the tip with other passengers, it’s easier if everyone agrees to the same tip. Splitting a tip can be difficult and often results in a driver being under-tipped or over-tipped. Do not wait until the last minute to discuss the tip. If possible, it’s best to have everyone match their tips. If there is disagreement about the tip amount, you can simply calculate your share of the bill, take 20% from the total and then base your final tip on your opinion of the driver’s service.
