Me and FH are paying for everything ourselves and I'm trying to get a rough idea of what the price per person is for rehearsal dinners. Does anyone have any info? I'm looking into the babylon village area (main street).
I tried doing a search here and nothing came up. Please FM me ballpark figures if you don't want to post.
Thanks so much!!!

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
I was looking in Westchester, but just to give you an idea, I saw anywhere between $30-50 per person if you wanted a sit-down dinner and that was just including soft drinks and coffee, not liquor. I'm sure there are places that cost less though Good luck!!

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
I am not sure if this will help since we are getting married out east but figured at least you would have a frame of reference. we were quoted from 19.95-32.95 with soda and cofee/tea, etc. Usually open bar was $5-10 more or you could just pay a tab at the end with a max cap (ours is a $500 cap with top shelf alcohol)

We decided to have a rehearsal brnch instead of a RD, and we paid about $20 pp. It was in Westchester though, so I don't know how helpful that was.

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
I am looking for something myself in the same area, so far I got one quote from Molly Malone's in Bayshore (on the water by the ferries)
for appetizers, salad and choice of three entrees it was 23.95 pp with beer/wine/soda 33.95 pp with open bar 41.95 pp
They have a room upstairs for private parties

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
thanks for the info! I'd love to have Gemelli's but I hear it's very expensive.
I can see I won't be having an open bar though -- it is wayyyyy too expensive!!!

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
WE are having ours at the NCO Club at the air force base where fi works. we were going w/ a restaurant but were coming up w/ prices of $30/head (we're out east) and w/ 40 people (yes for a rd!) we decided the club was the cheapest. i'm having it catered for about $250 and there is a bar that we are doing a cash bar for. we are paying for everything so this really helped

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
My RD isn't in the area you are looking but we are having it at Katie Daly's in Mass & we are paying $32 a person which includes beer, wine & soda--3 choices for dinner appetizer & salad & coffe & tea. The only thing we have to get is a cake.
I also believe that Molly Malone's which I think is in the Babylon area is also the same price--but not positive. My friend had her RD there & everyone loved it.

Re: Rehearsal Dinner Prices
I sincerely appreciate all of your replies. Here I was thinking it would cost about $20 pp!!
LOL, what a wake-up call!!!! I suggested a Chinese buffet, but my mother thinks it's a bad idea. I'm like, 'oh, I didn't realize you were paying for the wedding, now!!'
