MD we did $4pp
DJ and MC $100 each
Photographer $150 for each and $50 for the 2 assistants. They went above and beyond for us
And florist delivery $25 The actual florist delivered and did the set up for us...so everything else went to her anyway.

Re: Tipping questions

The only tip I remember off hand was the band - $25/person.

I think our photog we gave $75

Didn't tip video - owner of company was our videographer

I was wondering about tipping for an owner of a company. My photographer owns his company and so does my videographers. SO I shouldn't tip them?

I'd appreciate everyone's opinion on this, thanks!

YES!! I gave the most tip to her and my photog because they were outstanding.

I didn't follow the rules for my hall, head waiter...

Re: Tipping questions

We had a band and didn't tip them since they were to owners and we paid over $10K for them.
The price for our Maitre'D was included int he cost of our RH so we tipped him another $200 the night of since he was so awesome.
We tipped our florist $150 and the delivery driver $25
Our photographer was $150 and his assistant was $75
