Wedding Etiquette - Rehearsal Dinner

Q: Our budget is tight- can we have a rehearsal without hosting an actual dinner afterwards?

A: It’s customary to host a rehearsal dinner, but it is not mandatory. If you have room in your budget, do something simple and stress free like hosting the dinner at a friend and family member’s house. Serve spaghetti and wine or burgers and beer.

If having a dinner is not in your budget, inform everyone ahead of time that they are free to leave after the rehearsal.
