Re: Did you tip

I tipped AND fed my DJ and MC. There was no question for me about that. To me it's just human to feed someone.

Re: Did you tip

We fed ours of course, but as is customary in Italy, no tip. My wedding planner told us tipping the band was unnecessary and very uncommon in Italy!
I was pretty happy about that!

Re: Did you tip

Well, the band is over 7,000 and i heard recently that with bands it's either/or - tip or food. i have to look at my contract again to see if there's something in it.

Re: Did you tip

Well, I guess I'll see how I feel the day of the wedding. We'll definitely feed them, and if we are exceptionally happy with them, we'll tip them too. Thanks!

Re: Did you tip

We had a meal for each band member. Since half of our band was replacements and for other reasons, we decided not to tip them.

Re: Did you tip

Fed DJ : yes Tipped DJ: yes, but not the emcee, who was the owner of the company and had also gotten snippy w/ us earlier in the evening when he got there!
