Planning a Rehearsal Dinner
Wedding season is officially upon us as August is in full swing. When it comes to planning your rehearsal dinner, you want everything to be perfect. The rehearsal dinner is typically held the night before the wedding as a celebration for what is about to come. When it comes to planning the rehearsal dinner, there are a few things you should make sure to do to ensure you and your guests have an amazing night.
- Book the venue – when it comes to planning a rehearsal dinner, location is important. You may have out of town guests so be considerate that the location is not too much of a hassle for them to get to.
- Pick out who you would like to give a toast – if you notify these people a few months in advance (typically three) this will give them enough time to prepare a speech. There is also the option of allowing anyone at the rehearsal dinner to give a spontaneous toast as well.
- Mail invitations – as important as it is to plan the event, make sure to invite everyone to celebrate it with you. Typically, family, out of town guests and close friends are invited to a rehearsal dinner.
- Create a seating plan – this will avoid the awkward shuffle of everyone trying to figure out where to sit.
- Send the venue a final guest count – typically, the venue needs this about seventy-two hours in advance. But it is best to check with your venue for their requirements.
