FutureMrsDeShong in Etiquette and Advice, on February 4, 2017 at 12:37 AM

I'm getting my engagement pictures taken early March. I was wondering if I'm supposed to tip her after? How does that work? How much should I tip if I do?

FH's guests will be coming from Pennsylvania and the wedding is in the Dallas, Tx area. My question is how early should I send out save the dates if his side is out of state? Is 8 months too early?
