We're signing the contract with our photographer later this week and I'm not sure how to ask if we have to pay for hotel stay, and a meal. We originally have them counted in the guest list for reception--there will be two photographers (they will be photographing 8 hours on the wedding day), so I figured it only makes sense. But how do I ask about hotel stay without sounding rude or pushy? They will be traveling 1 hour 30 minutes to our venue, travel fee is no additional charge but in the contract they have nothing about if we pay for a night stay in a hotel room. I'm assuming not since it doesn't say that in there but I'd rather be safe and ask than be sorry.
What are some ways I can ask this without sounding rude and blunt?
