Questions about tipping

The following vendors own there own company; is it customary to tip them and if so how much?

Photographer, Florist, DJ

The tip is included for my limo but do I give an extra $50?

Also how much have you girls tipped your Bridal Attendant & Maitre D(Spelt Wrong)?


Did you give any additional money to the church ontop of the fee that they are charging?

Thanks for the advice I really appreciate it.

I do NOT plan to give extra $$ to the church. They are making us pay for the organist and singer, even though we hired our own and the church ones don't have to show up - they get paid either way

Tipping

We do not have to pay a fee for using the church but we are going to donate money to the church. Our organist is a friend of the family so she is not charging but we will give her a little something for playing at the ceremony; not sure how much yet.

Bridal attendant: $100-$200 dep on service
Maitre d: customary is between $2-$5 pp, dep on service
We didn't tip extra for our limo, bec it was already included and we were broke at at that point lol
No tip is expected at the florist unless you are there when they deliver and/or set up...then about $10 to the guy(s) that are doing that
It's up to you if you want to tip the photo and video if they own their own company...some girls do and some don't. You could also wait until you get the final prodyct to tip (that's what we did with our video and will probably do with our photg when we get our album!)

HTH...GL!!!

I just started a thread about this earlier today!!

i didnt think you had to tip the photgrapher or the florist- but it seems everyone on here is tiping the photgrapher...

at my RH they SUGGEST $3-$5 a person to tip the matre'D so thats like $300 to $500... its so crazy

I would tip the guys who are delivering and setting up your flowers.
