    Our catering budget turned out to be around that same price, so we are tipping $150 because she is way cheaper than we expected.Don't know about the other 2.

    Not sure about the DJ and photographer, but you are getting an insanely good deal on catering. I'd probably give her $500, because I can't see how she's making a cent on the deal...

    The first two are giving you awesome deals because they are people you are connected to. Either research what other people would charge you or ask what their normal rates are, and tip 20% based on those rates. (Similar to going to a restaurant and using a gift card or discount - you tip on the amount before discount, not including tax.)If the photographer owns her company, she doesn't need a tip, but it would be nice to give her a little extra.
