So is it true that you would normally tip an officiant?
I got an email this morning from our Elopement Package place (some would say we are having a micro wedding...8 people total including us) saying that it isn't necessary to tip the officiant but it is common. Our elopement is in the middle of nature among the Smokey Mountains in Gatlinburg, TN in 6 days. If he does a good job and a tip is expected I want to make sure to do so, but how much?
The email also said it isn't customary to tip the photographer because he's the owner of the studio, but then again if he does a good job (wont know until the photo's come in) doesn't he deserve a tip as well? Can you tip after the fact?
What do you think? Would you tip? If so, how much?
Please Note the package only cost like $600, if that helps with your answer.
