Not quite sure how to handle this because I've never been in this situation. One of my FH good friends will be DJing our reception. Before we agreed to hire him, they were on the guest list. This is his only means of income and we are going to pay him for his service since he will not be working as he does every Saturday. (He is outstanding and giving us a discount!!) My question is, do we keep him on the guest list and pay for his plate and pay him as well? Not sure how that works. Advise.
