The rehearsal dinner is typically held the night before the wedding and is an opportunity for the wedding party and immediate family to come together and enjoy a meal before the big day. Here are some steps to help you plan a rehearsal dinner:

  • Set a budget: Determine your budget for the rehearsal dinner and decide how many people you will invite.
  • Choose a location: Decide on a location for the rehearsal dinner that is convenient for your guests and fits within your budget. Options include a restaurant, hotel, or private event space.
  • Create the guest list: Create a guest list for the rehearsal dinner, which typically includes the wedding party, immediate family members, and out-of-town guests.
  • Plan the menu: Choose a menu that is simple and easy to serve, such as a buffet or family-style dinner. Consider any dietary restrictions or allergies of your guests when planning the menu.
  • Decorations and ambiance: Keep the décor and ambiance simple and elegant to match the wedding day theme. Consider adding personal touches such as photos or a slideshow of the couple.
  • Schedule speeches and toasts: Coordinate any speeches or toasts with the hosts and ensure that the microphone and audiovisual equipment are in place.
  • Coordinate logistics: Make sure that transportation is arranged for out-of-town guests and that everyone knows the location, date, and time of the rehearsal dinner.
