Am I forgetting to tip anyone?

Maitre de - $4 per person
Bridal Attendant - $100
MC - $100
Music Spinner? - $50
Main Videographer - $100
Secondary Videographer - $50
Florist Delivery - $20
Makeup/Hair - 20%

As of now, we are not having a limo.

I was told you do not have to tip the photographer. Is this true? They are a couple and are the entire business so they are the 'owners'.

Looks good to me.

What about the officiant? If you are getting married in a church, would you tip the altar servers?

Are you having anyone play music at the ceremony or cocktail hour?

Yes, we have ceremony musicians.

Do we need to tip them too? How much?

Ceremony Musicians, I'd say $25 each. It should only be about 30 minutes, right?

Oops! Forgot about him! Yes, we plan on tipping our BM, though I've heard that in lieu of tipping you can give a gift, or a nice bottle of wine...We'll see if he does us any favors over the next few months!
