Default toilet, sink above tile?

I need to undertake a bathroom remodeling project (people who've read my
previous thread will know why).

I plan on replacing a vanity/sink with a pedestal sink and possibly
replace the toilet as well. I will need to pull up the existing vinyl
sheet flooring. Tub and tub surround will stay.

I've Googled and read that the pedestal sink goes above new flooring
(which will likely be ceramic tile). What about the toilet? Do I need to
remove the toilet, lay tile, then have new toilet installed?

My initial thoughts are to remove the old vanity cabinet myself (because
the sink is actually attached to the wall and the vanity cabinet build
around it), remove the flooring and then lay tile. After tile is laid,
call the plumber and have him remove the sink and install new pedestal
sink.

But the toilet could throw a wrench into things if I have to remove it to
lay tile.

Advice?

Thanks
