Never had a wedding rehearsal dinner before? You've come to the right place!

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Budget
  • Head Count
  • Invites (optional)
  • gifts
Step1
First of all, you need to decide if this is going to be a formal event or an informal event. They don't all need to be fancy, you could have your rehearsal dinner anywhere from a fancy hotel to HomeTown Buffet(ours was here).
Step2
Who is paying for the dinner? Is it you your soon to be husband/wife? Is it the bride's parents or the groom's parents? Anyway, whoever is funding the rehearsal dinner has a budget. Get with them and talk it over
Step3
The rehearsal dinner doesn't need to be fancy. You can have it at Hometown Buffet if you like. My husband and I did. It was only 12 dollars a person and there were around 30 people that attended.
Step4
Call the venue and make sure they have space for you and your group, if your having a groom's cake, make sure they allow outside food to come in. Most of them don't care as it's a fairly big group anyways!
Step5
Brings gifts for your attendants (if your the bride and groom). This is the best time to acknowledge them and thank them for being in your wedding party.
Step6
Most of all, thank the person(s) who paid for the event.

Tips & Warnings

  • Keep the budget in mind
  • Make sure it's a place that everyone can eat at.
  • HAVE FUN!
  • Try not to go over the budget, it can be very easy
