So basically we tip anyone who is a business and a gift to anyone that is not? I know for sure the caterer. For instance:

Caterer: Yes
DOC: No (works for herself)
DJ: No (works for himself)
Photographer: No (works for herself)
Videographer: Yes (business)
Cake: Yes (business)
Flowers: No (works for herself)
Limo: No (tip is included)
Officiant: No (Uncle of FI)
MU & hair: Yes (business)

    I think that sounds pretty good.  I'm not actually tipping our cake bakery.  I would say for your officiant, he should get a small gift or something if you want.

    We are giving a gift to the wedding planner and our reader and WP. In general, we're tipping those vendors that are not self employed. We don't intend to tip self employed vendors (ie. our photographer, florist, decorator) unless we feel they went above and beyond and deserve it.
