Limo - $25 each (this was extra b/c gratuity was included in the contract)

Photographers - $100 each

Photo Asst. - $50

Banquet Manager - $350 (We had 130 ppl)

Restroom attendants - $25

Hair / makeup - 20-25% (b/c I went to a salon)

We had a band, not a DJ.

Do you tip the band if they are independent? If the hair/makeup people come to you and work for themselves do you tip them?
