Church Brides

At my church, the couple that ran our precana is doing the rehearsal. Should I be inviting them to rehearsal dinner? if so, wedding too? I am inviting the priest to my wedding, but he won't be at the rehearsal. it may be awkward, but probably polite. What are you guys doing?

I don't think you would have to invite the couple. The priest is doing the precana with us. We are inviting him to the reception.

No, you don't need to invite the couple doing the precana.
The priest is only if you want to.

Do you have to- no. Is it a nice gesture- yes. I would invite them to the RD if you can afford it. Not to the wedding though.

I think it all depends on if you feel you made a 'connection' w/ this couple. I'm sure they do this all the time & I can't see everyone inviting them to the rehersal dinner. To me that's a place where the wedding party gets to know eachother.
You can always put them on your 'B' list for the wedding.

ugh, I am in the middle of pre-cana right now and I am very bitter and hating every minute of it! I would never invite the couple that's running it, even if they did the rehearsal. You can invite them to the church only. I'm sure they do a lot of precana groups and couldn't afford to go the all of the weddings anyway. I wouln't invite them to the rehearsal dinner either. thats a special time for you to spend with the limited amout of people that have the most special parts in your wedding. good luck.
