12th Night, Oksana & Hair Genie
This is a tipping question- if anyone has used these vendors, how much do you tip??

Re: 12th Night, Oksana & Hair Genie
Hey girl!!!!!
I used them all as you know. I tipped Jenn like $25 or $30 I believe, and Oksana the same....
12th nite We werent going to tip until we got our proofs but our best man tipped Cynthia when she left because we had such a good time with her. We tipped Michael $50 when we picked up our proofs.

Re: 12th Night, Oksana & Hair Genie
hey!! So, you did tip Oksana & jenn..I've heard if they work for themselves you don't need to since they pocket all the money anyway---??
As far as 12th night, I have Dominic for the 1st like 4 hrs or somehting, then someone else for 10hrs... do I tip both?? Also, good point about tipping before seeing the proofs- how do you let them know they will get a tip after the proofs??? seems an uncomfortable phrase to say

Re: 12th Night, Oksana & Hair Genie
We tipped 12th Night as follows:
Dom - $50 Geraldine - $100
IMO we undertipped because they really went above and beyond, esp. Dominic who had to deal with chaos in the morning.

Re: 12th Night, Oksana & Hair Genie
Well you are right about Oksana and Jenn but Jenn fastened my corset and the both of them stayed well after they were done and helped with a few other little things going on so I felt they deserved it.
As for tipping the photog after, we didnt say anything....we just gave it to them months later. I know 12th nite has a good rep but we didnt want to tip for anything we hadnt actually received yet. Imagine if we got our proofs and they were all horrible - we just tipped for nothing!
But as I said the best man gave $ to Cynthia the day of anyway. We just hadnt set any $ aside for Michael.

Re: 12th Night, Oksana & Hair Genie
I tipped oksana $20...which is 20% and i thought that was more than enough.
But..i feel a tiny bit bad for not tipping the photographer. I used cynthia from images forever (she used to be with 12th night)..but i figured she works for herself and we didn't budget a tip for her.
