Should We Invite Our Videographer for Dinner?


Thanks for asking. It is customary to invite your videographer to dinner. After a busy day of shooting, they will truly appreciate having dinner. If you have a “vendor table”, it is common to seat your DJ, Photographer and Videographer at the same table. It’s a good idea for your service providers to be close and available in the event that they are needed to shoot a spontaneous event.
