Tipping on flower delivery?

Hi ladies,

I searched through old posts to find a post on this, so I apologize if I missed a recent one.
I'm getting married tomorrow and wondering if I tip on flower delivery.  I paid for the delivery, and I am not sure if the guy I have been dealing with is just in charge or is also the owner (in terms of delivery, I don't know if that even makes a difference because I assume it is a few people coming for delivery).  What do you think?  If I tip, what percentage do you think it should be?
Thanks a bunch!

    Tipping the florist is optional. But I'm going with this advice:

    "Florist - You don't need to tip the florist for making your arrangements but you can tip them an extra $5.00 per delivery location (3 locations=$15.00) or $10-20.00 per staff member in one lump sum, for set-up and delivery."

    I tipped our florists $20 the morning of when they delivered.  I felt they deserved it even though they own the company.  They did 2 drop offs in the morning, & then went to the venue to set up for the ceremony.  They are actually the only vendor besides hair & makeup that I tipped!

    I plan on tipping the florist with a positive review and a thank you card.
