If they are not the owners of the company I would tip them, yes.

If you have good service then you should tip! I know that quite often limo drivers and maitre'd's have separate charges already built in though so I'd take a look!

I tipped them and never wouldn't have even thought not to.

Our photographer owns his company. I will probably give him $50 IF we've already paid the balance before the day of. If not, I may not tip him on top of the cash balance. I will definitely give his assistant $50.
The DJ & MC I will tip if I feel really good about how it went. I'll keep $50 for the DJ and $100 for the MC ready if I'm really feeling it at the end of the night and feel like they deserve it. Our MC owns the DJ company.
The florist I'm not planning to tip at all. She owns the company and has nickle and dimed me every step of the way. She made decorations that she charged me crazy amounts of money for and made sure I know that I'm 'renting' them, even though I paid more than 2x what it would've cost for me to make them myself. There's no way the labor was worth that much. If she has people with her to help with the set-up and delivery, I may give them $10 each at the beginning. But as far as I'm concerned my florist already got her tip built into the price. If I change my mind day-of, I'll have some cash set aside just in case.
OMG I have soooo much cash I have to get out of the bank... I feel like I'm going to be like an ATM...
