yet another tipping question

how much would you tip for hair and makeup for 5 people if the vendors are coming to your house?
how much would you tip a 3 piece ensamble who is playing for your ceremony and cocktail hour?
if you are having an 8 piece band, do you tip each individually or what is a good amount for the group? thanks

I was wondering about the band too, and i'm curious to see what others say. I would think we should just tip the whole group and let them divy it up. My band is 10 pieces, and it would be crazy to tip 8 or 10 separate people!
I'd do a percentage of whatever it is you're paying them in total... I don't know what the right percentage is though. SOrry I'm not much help.
