I need help with tipping

okay figuring out the next step. can't believe i am about 40 days away!
how much (or what percent) did you/do you tip everyone?
I know maitre'd is typically around 500 or so
limo drivers? photo, video, dj
what if this is their company? they own it?
bridal attendant
AHHHHHHHHHH
thanks gals
i think i owe all of your the biggest tip!

check your contract is the gratuity already included for you limo driver?? pretty often thats the case and you dont have to tip again unless they really go above and beyond that day.

We will tip the maitre'd about $500
$100 to each photographer and videographer
$50-100 for bridal attendent, depends what she actually does
$200 for the band
$0 for the oficiants- they're being paid well-enough for their 20 minutes of service
maybe $25 to the flower delivery person

Keep in mind, all of these tips may change based on service. If everyone does their job, they may not be tipped. The people who really go out of their way or give us extraordinary service will be compensated for their effort.
