Vendor Tips

ok here's another question for everyone out there. How much to tip your vendors!?!

Photographer ($100?)
Videographer ($100?)
Florist ($25?)
DJ & MC ($175?)
Hair Stylist
Makeup Artist

Thoughts?!

Vendor Tips

That sounds about right for what we did (I'm going back 2.5 years ago though). I think we might have done 125 for photo and 75 for his assistant but if you only have one i would keep the 100.

Hair and makeup would depend on if they own their own business. My makeup artist owned her own business so I didn't tip her since she pockets the money anyway. My hair stylist was the same thing but her assistant I though should be tipped so I gave her an extra 10 per girl she did (which was like 4 girls). I didn't think it was fair that some girls would have to tip and some wouldn't so I took care of it myself.
