Re: tipping vendors...

I have so much trouble with this tipping thing. I feel like everything is costing us so much, so why must we tip as well, especially since most of the vendors are the owners of their businesses and they will get them money they are charging us. Hmmmmm.....

Re: tipping vendors...

we tipped the band members $50 each and we tipped the main photographers (there were two of them) $200 --they did not charge for overtime and stayed until 2am. we tipped the assistants $50 & $75 I think...

we tipped the main videographer $150 - i forget what we gave his assistant...

i think we may have tipped a little too much here...

oh --we gave the limo drivers $20 or $25 each - i can't remember...
