Anyone not having a Rehearsal Dinner?


We're not rehearsing and it is hard for everyone to get together just days before the wedding. 2 people live in NJ, FH's family is coming in from FL and my brother is in the navy station is Greece. All parties are part of the BP and may not be here until two days before the wedding. So would it be weird to not have one?

I was thinking of giving the BP their gifts immediately after the reception or at the morning after Brunch . What do you think?

TIA

i don't think we are. if we do, we'll just meet back at someone's house for a casual dinner.

We are thinking the same thing. Maybe our place... but that could be more trouble than its worth. Cleaning before and after with everything else that needs to be done... (Sigh)

we are going to have a very casual bbq or something the day before and all fam and bridal party is invited. it will be a very very informal rehearsal dinner but i want to get everyone together to mingle and go over last minute stuff.

I really want to have one... may have to do it the wknd before... without everyone there. Logistically, we won't have all of the BP there until 1 or 2 days before the wedding for travel reasons that cannot be helped. I'm pushing a casual RD though since the wedding will be more formal.

I don't think we're having one because we're getting married at the RH so I don't know how much practice would be involved. I may give the BM's their gifts the morning of the wedding.
