However, when choosing an Elvis wedding package in Vegas, keep in mind that many packages do not include taxes or gratuities. The minister’s tip is typically around $60, while performers, limousine drivers, and photographers also expect a tip. Your tip should, of course, reflect the level of service you believe you have received and take into account the total price paid for your wedding package.
Before confirming a wedding package, always ask the wedding coordinator what the final price for the package is after taxes and what he or she recommends as an appropriate tip.
