Are you tipping your photographer??? WHAT ABOUT FLORIST?

Original post by cynandkeith

i thought it was customary NOT to tip the photographer- i mean they are getting thousands of dollars already from you....

AND THEN i just got a final confirmation email and in it says

'Your photography and video booking will provide you with TWO photographers and ONE video on your wedding day.
A gratuity for their hard work is customary and would be greatly appreciated.'

what are you ladies doing?????

Edited to add in florist- it seems everyone is tipping the photogrpaher - so might as well ask about florist since i have NO CLUE

I have never heard anyone not. You should tip everyone. The amount depends on the way they do their job. JMO

I think I will tip my photographer a little less than I normally would b/c she owns the business, but I will be more generous with the assistant

Flowers - we will give small tip to delivery person

you tip anyone that provide you with a service....pretty much all your vendors.

ETA: Didn't see my florist the day of our wedding, but went to him when we returned from our HM to give him a tip.

For the florist, I only tipped the delivery guy. I didn't even see the actual florist day of.. didn't occur to me to tip her.
