Tipping officiants for ceremony at reception hall?

We are having a rabbi and a priest for our interfaith ceremony at the NRC. Do we tip each officiant on top of their fee? How much? We feel that the $500 they are each getting for a 1/2 an hour ceremony is a lot!

$1000 is enough, IMO.

I'm not tipping our officiant. it would be over the top... and we're broke!

I didn't tip mine. I paid them $750, so I felt that was MORE than sufficient.
