Feeding Vendors at the reception (a little long).....

OK, so perhaps the only thing (so far) that FH and I are arguing about is who to tip and how much (I'll save that for another thread) and feeding the vendors at the reception. I've finally convinced him that you HAVE to feed the photographer(s)/Videographer because these people are putting in like a 12 hour day. But he is in complete disagreement with feeding the DJ since he'll only be there for 5 hours.

Now, our reception site offers 1/2 price meals only to house vendors, if we book anyone else we pay full price. As far as the DJ goes, FH feels that they're working 5 hours so they should not be entitled to a full meal (app, salad, intermezzo, entree, dessert, drinks), I actually agree with him on that, but you have to feed them something right? Has anyone worked with their reception hall on this as far as putting together a vendor meal of some sort? Has anyone NOT fed or intend NOT to feed the DJ??

Thanks!
