Okay, so I'm too tired from putting together my supplies to drop off at hall tonight and I don't feel like searching, so forgive me. I believe there was a thead on tipping for each of vendors. Can anyone bump it?
If not, can you tell me what you tipped or plan on tipping for the following:
Maitre' D (I'm thinking $200) Bridal Attendant DJ Also doing percussionist, do I tip him separately than DJ? Ceremony Musician Photographer Videographer Florist delivery to hotel where I'm getting ready? Limo drivers Officiant? (don't think so right?)
TIA!

i think you should give the maitre d more. You should definatley tip the percussionsit seperately.
Usually, they give you a standard # like $3 per person. Two hundred seems a bit low! We are doing:
Maitre D-$600 at least bridal Attendant- $100 at least DJ/MC/Percussionist-$100 each ($75 for percussionist) Photographer- $75 each Videographer-$75 Limo guy-not sure yet. Gratuities are included but we will give a little something extra!

Hmm, we already charged $300 Maitre'D Fee on contract which is split with all the staff. I need to do another $600 on top of that? I'm only having 90 guests.

Ask your hall about the maitre'd tip - I asked mine if they had any guidelines and they said $1-$3/guest - which is less than many of the tipping posts I've seen, and you fall within that guideline. See what they say.
