How much did you tip your dj?

If you don't mind being honest... I want to get together the envelopes but I'm clueless. I don't want to under tip but yet I don't want to break the bank. (I have 1 dj/mc and he's not the owner). Can you fm me if you don't want to post? Thanks

sorry, I know this is such a repetitive topic.

We had a lot of different people that came with the DJ b/c there was the emcee, photos, lights, plasmas, percussionist, etc. I gave the emcee either $50 or 75 b/c there were so many people. If it's just 1 person, I would give $100.

I actually gave the DJ $100 and the MC $100. I did this mainly because they agreed to stay the extra hour for free (I did a five hour reception plus cocktail hour). I gave the steel drummer $75 and the lightening guys/zap shot guys $25 each.

The photographer and videographer I gave $100 each and I wasn't sure that was enough. They were with me for over 12 hours so I felt it should have been more but I was so broke lol.

I think $100.00 each for the emcee and then the dj as well is perfect. Im having so much trouble figuring all this tipping stuff out! ah!

Are we supposed to tip the priest/officiant? No, right?
