If you have no assistant, I would not tip more. Also, I am not tipping my priest just giving the 'donation' to the church.

What if they own their own business - do you still tip?

My videographer, photographer, DJ (he is the MC), maekup artist and hair stylist all own their own business and I am tipping them anyway.

We did this last night So here's what we're tipping:

1. Maitre D=$3.00 per person (this money is split b/w the maitre d and captain);
2. Photo=$150 (he will be with us for about 12 hours)
3. Video=$100
4. Bridal attendants=$25 each
5. Florist delivery=$50 (maybe less depending on how many there are);
6. Limos=$20 each driver
7. Makeup/hair=$75 (this is for me, my mom, and my grandma);
8. Priest=$100
9. DJ=$50 for MC; $50 for DJ

I think that's it

ETA: Only my makeup/hair person is an owner. I'm tipping her anyway since she is the sweetest and has helped me so much and is travelling to me.
