Average tips are 10-20% of the un-discounted service price
We strongly recommend leaving a gratuity for your artist after the event is concluded.
Many times, artists are tipped later into the evening and the couple is busy with their guests and don't always get the chance to see the artists before they leave. It is a good idea to appoint an attendant, parent, or event planner to distribute tips at the end of the night. The easiest way is to have each tip in a sealed envelope with the artist name & service name for easy distribution.
