If hair and make up are coming to you I would give more. I would also give less to the flower delivery guy.. maybe more like $25. I would also give more to the photographers. THey are the only ones who are with you the ENTIRE DAY.

Also waitstaff... isn't serive charge/gratuity in your contract with them?

OH and bridal attendants, I wouldn't give less than $100... I planned on giving each $100 and at the end of the night gave them more bc they were sooo incredible and so helpful. They reeeeally work for you

ITA! Especially about the photogs. We gave them $100 each and $50 to their assistant.

Hair/makeup I'm going to them. Waitstaff service/gratuity isn't a tip. They only get paid their wage I used to work for a catering company.
