For the rehearsal dinner is everyone inviting the bridal party plus there significant others? Is it tacky just to invite the bridal party and not there significant others? I feel like its becomes so many people that its basically a mini wedding!
IMO it's definitely tacky to not invite the dates
yeah it can be a mini wedding... i had 60 people at mine... i did the BP & Their SO... but i didnt invite OOT guests.
its really up to you budget. but i would invite the guests. its a good time for them to meet other people -- especially since their dates will be preoccupied with BP duty the next day!
i would say you should invite them with dates. i know my friend wouldnt be happy if i invited her but not her husband. But what we decided to do (partially for money reasons and partially bc we are having a jewish wedding so we dont need to do a rehearsal) is do an OOT dinner instead. this way none of the bridal party will be invited.
For our RD, the BP will be invited with their significant others as well as the readers
I say definitely invite significant others. Actually, when I was in my BFF's wedding 5 years ago, DH was invited to her RD. Another girl in the BP was bringing her boyfriend (at the time, now her DH), so we kept saying the two would just hang out together. Well, they instantly hit it off and spent the entire wedding together and are now like best friends, lol.
