| To be honest. We did not tip the Florist. We didn't tip the photographer or videograhper either. The other people we did tip was the caterer.. approx $300 I recall and the Limo Driver, we gave her $100 cause she was awesome. We paid all those services ALOT of money for their service and we felt they didn't need a tip for the thousands of dollars we had already spent!Though you can take a look at this website if you'd like:http://www.wedalert.com/content/articles/who_to_tip.asp |

| The caterer has the tip included in the final bill under the term 'gratituity'. You don't tip them extra unless the service was outstanding.The rest, you tip them what you feel they deserved only if they went above and beyond for you. You never tip anyone before seeing the final service in action or for bad/mediocre service. |

| You can tip the photographer or limo-driver. Forget the rest...they charge an arm and a leg. |

| Gratuities are almost always added into the final bill, whether you have hired a private catering company or are using one of the finest hotel facilities. The question has been asked, "Is it proper to tip the servers, when I have already paid a gratuity in my contracted price?" The answer is, of course, "tipping has always been a personal expression of gratitude for service given and appreciated." For instance, if a particular server has spent his evening providing you service, over and above your expectations, and you choose to give that individual a "tip," that choice is entirely up to you. It should be given for extra special services only. It is not required, as the gratuity has, as noted, already been paid. The customary amount would be up to 15%.

| Hi. Where I live, we do not tip those people. You are already paying them for their service. You can possibly tip the limo driver (if you are having a limo) and your fiance would tip the hair stylist and make-up person, but that would be it! |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace

Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
