rehearsal dinner.... who is invited?

Original post by Diorprincess

for the rehearsal dinner aren't bridal party allowed to bring husbands/wives/girlfriends/boyfriends?

my fmil insists no they aren't allowed. BUT the wife of FH's best man is allowed since they work together (FMIL & wife). I was like you can't just pick favorites and let him bring his wife but no one else can bring people.

and my mom insists out of town guests must be invited...

who is supposed to go?

This is from a 'rehearsal dinner basics' article on theknot.com that I just read the other day

Who to Invite
At the very least, the rehearsal dinner guest list includes immediate family (parents and siblings), wedding-party members and their spouses or significant others, and the parents of any child attendants (inviting the children themselves is optional). You should also invite the officiant and his or her spouse to the dinner (they may not come, but it's the polite thing to do).

Here's a link to the article

We allowed significant others of everyone in the bridal party.

We actually are going to have a decent amount of OOT guests but we chose NOT to invite them to the rehearsal. We have invited the BP and their SO's and parents, that is it.
