Tipping

I know this is a topic covered in a lot of posts, however I can't seem to find any specific to my situation.  

Our DJ and Photographer both own the business, however they will be bringing assistants, do we tip? 

The officiant is charging a fee of 300, we are not members of his congregation, do we still tip him?

I know its mostly based on whether or not they went above and beyond (most of our vendors have)  But I can't help but feel like I have spent so much already *We also added our vendors on to our buffet count to provide meals for them, which was full guest price!  Any thoughts??

    You should be tipping the assistants of the DJ and photographer, regardless of whether you have to pay for meals for them or not, because they don't own the business.

    I wouldn't tip the officiant, but I'm not really sure of the etiquette there. Generally you make a donation to the church.  I would consider an officiant who does ceremonies for non-congregation members a business owner, but maybe other ladies will chime in as well.

    Only 4 days to go for you!  Hope your stress levels are under control and tha!t things go smoothly!
