Rehearsal Dinner Locations & Ideas

By Marisilda Garcia

Whether large or small, casual or formal, sit down or buffet style-rehearsal dinner planning can sometimes take its own route, a route often outside of your wedding day plans. It’s important to remember that the rehearsal dinner is a more intimate gathering, before your wedding day. It’s a chance for both families to get together with you, to say thank you to those involved and enjoy the evening together before the whirlwind of your big day.

Whether the budget is large or small there are a number of ways to make this night before the event wonderful. Below are some tips to make your rehearsal dinner an intimate affair as personal and unique as you.

Hit the Beach…Texas style:
Gather your friends and family for a beach party featuring BBQ, pasta salad, sun tea, potato salad and all the fixin’s. Purchase these items at your local grocery store or have it catered family style. S’mores are optional as the sun sets over the ocean.

Park It:
Southern California is full of national parks and wildlife areas that provide the perfect backdrop to an eco-friendly dinner. Guests can bring their pets for an easy way to break the ice among everyone. Contact your local park department for availability.

Home Sweet Home:
Consider a professionally catered, or homemade event at your home. Nothing is more intimate and personal than a rehearsal dinner at the location where you'll feel absolutely comfortable. Perhaps a family-style homemade Italian or Mexican menu with things such as spaghetti and garlic bread or enchiladas and tacos as the main course. Themed linens, decorations, and special lighting will make for perfection.

Regardless of what you choose, the evening is about two families coming together as one. Make your evening personal by adding your own touches. (i.e.: photos of you and your groom on each table or a video slideshow-montage of both families shown after dinner) What better way is there to share the love between two people than with good food and family?

Happy planning!

Rehearsal Dinner Ideas
Traditionally in the United States, a Rehearsal Dinner is hosted by the groom and his family. Typically they are held one to two days prior to the wedding day. Keeping the event within a day or two from the wedding helps out of town relatives and VIP guests be able to attend. To assist your out of town guests during their stay, scout the location where the Rehearsal Dinner or wedding reception is to be held. Finding and recommending local restaurants and hotels/bed and breakfasts can be very helpful. Having the rehearsal dinner a few miles or less from the wedding/reception site would be optimal.

A great place to host the Rehearsal Dinner
Many local restaurants offer a private dining room to host Rehearsal Dinner's, private company parties, Birthday Parties, Anniversaries and other special events.

Rehearsal DinnersVary the Menu
You may wish to consider serving appetizers, entrees and a wine list that vary from the faire to be served at your wedding reception as well. In order to avoid duplicating entrees, confirm the menus with your caterers and the restaurant manager plenty of time in advance.

MusiciansEntertainment Ideas
You may wish to consider a strolling violinist, a solo acoustic gustarist, harpist, or a classically trained trio/ensemble. Find Musicians at weddingcompass.com to keep the party flowing and add that certain class you'll want your guests to remember.
