a word of a advice, the maitre d and the bridal attendants I gave myself a base tip price, and if they went above and beyond we gave extra than planned, i'd cut that in half....that seems like a bit much....if they go above and beyond for you, then that's perfect.

that's what I did. HTH :)

and yes, tip your officiant.

Unless you personally know the people doing your flowers then no tip for them. 99% chance you won't even see them. Typically forists get to the RH about 2 hours before to set up.

Other then that looks good.

Although if you have 1 MAIN photographer I'd give him more then the 2nd photographer.
