Rehearsal Dinner Question with Poll

You don't have to answer if its too personal but if you could answer the poll I would appreciate it. How much is everyone spending on their Rehearsal dinner? I got a quote today for $65 and I thought that was a little pricey. Is that normal? I was thinking around $50 was normal. $65 includes alcohol. TIA

ETA: That does not include tax and gratuity...Thanks

Brickhouse Brewery in Patchogue and I think FMIL is paying about 25 a head with wine and beer!

FMIL is planning ours so I have no idea what the pricing is (i know, no help), but from what i've read around here i think the norm is about $30 pp.

if you don't mind sharing, what place wanted $65 a head?

I think we're actually paying less than $20 pp but we're paying for it ourselves and it was either that or have no RD (well it's actually a rehearsal lunch). $65 def seems like a lot to me

$65 seems high and will be quite expensive if you have a big party and include (which I think is proper to) their significant others and the parents. I was looking at $35 pp with wine and beer and soda. I opted out of the RD after much discussion with everyone.

I've just been pricing places online and $30-$40 seems about the norm and that includes wine and beer.
