My fiances brothers wife is a hair stylist and will be doing hair and makeup for myself and my bridal party (5 ppl total) with the help of a coworker of hers. How much should I offer to pay each of them? I was thinking $75 a piece? What do you think?

Anyway, I would find out the going rate that they'd usually charge and offer that. If they insist on less as a gift, fine. But I would not offer them any less than they'd usually get for these services, especially since I imagine they're making things convenient by coming to you.

When I did wedding makeup in college, our rate was $400 for the bride/travel and $60 for each addtn. bridesmaid on site. That was just makeup, no hair. I'm trying to find someone that can do on site in Chicago now... I think the spa in our hotel charges $350 for hair and makeup!
