Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

Obviously the Bridal Party lol but I was wondering if it's customary to invite them solo or with guests. Also besides the BP who else gets invited? FH and I recently found out that we will be footing the bill for this so we want to keep the guestlist to the bare minimum but I also don't want to leave people out who should be invited. So are aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents invited too? or soley our parents and BP?

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

We kept it small and intimate - BP, immediate family and readers and friends who directly helped with the wedding.

My parents
FILs
Bridal party with guests
My grandpa
FH's grandma
We would invite OOT guests, but it is a Wednesday night, so somehow I doubt any of them would be able to come!

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

Anyone get married at Jericho Terrace? Do you know how to schedule a rehearsal with the BP at the site? I am afraid no one will know where to go

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

We invited BP and spouses/guests, parents, gift-bringers and their families, readers and their spouses and one aunt and uncle (parents of the readers and an MOH).

It was 30-40 people; if DH and I were to list the most important people in our lives, it's this group.

We also invited the priest, to be polite, but he didn't attend. We did not, even for one minute, consider inviting our DOC.

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

We are doing BP and guests, as well as OOT guests. Also maybe some of FMIL's close family because she is paying for it.

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

We are inviting our parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, bridal party with guests, readers and OOT guests.

I wanted something more intimate but, then again, our wedding is far from intimate so what was I thinking?

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

I invited everyone directly involved in the wedding: bridal party, readers, etc. Parents, grandparents and any of my relatives that had come in from out of town. There were 60 people invited! They were only invited with a guest if they were married or in a VERY serious relationship!!

Re: Who are u inviting to your rehersal dinner?

I guess this depends on the FILs, I think they are footing this bill.
ETS- If it were up to me, the BP would all be invited with their signifs. All of his BMs will be married by then.
