Tipping people involved in church ceremony

Okay, I know you are supposed to tip everyone under the sun, but just a question about tipping the people involved in the church ceremony. Do we tip the priest, singer, and organist? Even though we are paying the church $500? I was thinking to tip the singer and organist? Not sure, tell me what you think . . .

My church includes all of that with what we 'donate'

Re: Tipping people involved in church ceremony

We tipped the organist $25..because we did actually pay her through the church 'donation'. We also tipped the priest, but with a $50 gift certificate to dinner...I just felt weird giving him more money and all. And we had two people that set up stuff at the church and helped keep stuff organized there and we gave them $20 each.

Re: Tipping people involved in church ceremony

Don't forget about the altar boys/girls if you have them at your ceremony.
