Rehearsal Dinner by Lois Reyes
A rehearsal dinner is an informal dinner that takes place after a wedding rehearsal, usually a few days before the wedding, although it is commonly held the night before of the wedding ceremony. Wedding etiquette does not demand that you have a rehearsal dinner, although advises take such opportunity to thank the attendants for all their help planning the wedding.
While some couples prefer both the wedding rehearsal and the rehearsal dinner take place two or three days before the wedding to relax on the wedding's eve, the wedding day is such a busy day that it is more likely the bride and the groom will no eat until the reception, and not exactly immediately.
So eating with your loved ones the night before is more than advisable, necessary! Rehearsal dinners were traditionally paid by the groom's parents, but this expense is becoming in a part of the wedding planning budget. In families who share strong bond one another, are the parents of both the groom and the bride who paid for the rehearsal dinner.
At the rehearsal dinner the couple will toast, thank the attendants and present small gratitude gifts to their groomsmen and bridesmaids. Sometimes the people invited to the rehearsal dinner have been helping the couple but have not socialized among them so taking this opportunity to play ice-breaking games will contribute with the success of your wedding day getting the friends of the groom and the bride meet in anticipation.
If you are a bride that is going to marry but you are unsure of having a rehearsal dinner planned, ask you future mother-in-law, as this responsibility belongs to her. I she is not considering to celebrate it, discuss with her and your own mother the idea of having one and let them decide if you can count with their help, otherwise go ahead yourself.
Attending a rehearsal dinner requires sending out invitations, but these can be simple formats that are sent a few days before the wedding invitation. With the Internet and many couples wanting to have out-of town guests, sometimes is better send rehearsal dinner invitations by email, unless you are following a more traditional format in every stage of your wedding planning.
Rehearsal dinner is a custom originated in the United States, country at which it is fully integrated into the matrimony traditions, although it is also commonly observed in Canada. Because of the informal nature of this dinner, you do not need to celebrate this event at a luxury venue or restaurant and the food in the menu does not need to be so elaborated.
Rehearsal dinners are commonly held at the groom or bride's home unless the numbers of guests require taking the dinner outdoors or at a specific place with enough room for all. Some couples prefer to have a rehearsal dinner at an early our so everyone can enjoy with yard activities within the house and without formalities that the wedding etiquette will demand to all of them during the wedding day.
