My couples always ask "Should I be tipping my vendors"? The only people who are "counting on it" are hair/makeup and transportation drivers. The rest is completely up to you! Here is what I tell couples if they are looking to tip above and beyond the service fee (again not necessary, but GREATLY appreciated!)
Delivery Staff (Flowers, Cake, Rentals etc) $10 each
Officiant $25-$50
Band/DJ $50-$200
Florist $25-$75
Hair/Makeup 15-20% of bill
Transportation 15-20% of bill
Photographer $50-$100
Videographer $50-$100
Ceremony Musicians $20-$25 each player
Wedding Coordinator $100-$200
Event Manager/Venue Manager $50-$200
One of the BEST gifts for any vendor is a hand written note, word of mouth praise, or online reviews.
