Re: No Rehearsal Dinner???
I don't think we are going to have one.
First of all, we are not having a rehearsal, 2nd - his parents haven't offered anything!!!! So I think what we want to do is have bridal family, close family, and any OOT guests who may already be in for a party two nights before the wedding - it will be summer and backyard is huge! very casual - prob catered, but fun and low key!!

We are not having a rehearsal dinner....The night before the wedding, we will be going to the chinese buffet. Any OOT's will be welcome to join us...but nothing formal.

We are not having a RD either (the rehearsal will take place the day of) - my parents are having OOT guests at their house the night before.

We are not having a RD either. We are getting married at Oheka so we figure we can go over it the day of. Plus we have 22 pp in our BP, so having a RD is like having a mini wedding (50pp).
Way too many!
Way too many!

NO rehearsal dinner for us...
If my parents want to do something for out OOT guests we will either go to dinner or figure out something b/c my parents don't want to do anything w/FILs.
I don't want anything b/c that would mean FH would go with his side & me with mine...I hope by then both families can figure out a way just to be together for us...

I'm leaning towards no.
We are havingn an actual rehearsal, and then we might have cake & coffe at my paretns house. reharsal isn't till & thoguh, so it would be too late to havea bigger the night before the wedding- & I'd rather relax & just hang out at home with the family.
I have a feeling FH's aunt might offer to ahve people at her house since she lives near the church.
I guess that's ok, but I'm more comfortable at my parents house.

If it were up to me, I'd rather NOT have a rehearsal dinner ... mainly because its far from where we live, its gonna be late at night, and I know at that point the last thing I'm gonna feel like doing is having a big old dinner when I'm totally stressing.
BUT my FMIL is insisting on having the dinner .. it means a lot to her. Since she's been so wonderful and helpful to me, I cannot say no!!

We had one, but very informal. We went to a family style italian restaurant, wore informal clothes and called it a 'meet and greet', so that those who didn't know one another could get to meet each other. It was at 3pm too, so it wasn't very expensive:) ($15 a person).

We aren't having a real one. We are going to invite our friends and close family to a bar/lounge and have a party there. that way the out of town guests have something to do, and we can be with our friends and family. It will be informal.
