Rehearsal dinners are an intimate time to share with your closest family and wedding party. Here are a 3 ways to make the MOST of this special time:
1.) Have your photographer come to the rehearsal dinner for one hour.
Dear couples, please sneak off for a mini photoshoot! If you’re on the fence, check out these stunning photos of Olivia and Josh at Villa Cetinale. Also, don’t forget to do individual photos. Aren’t these stunning? Jazmin did a fantastic job capturing these moments.
This is also a great time for the photographer to meet the wedding party and important family members.
2.) Coordinate speeches
Your rehearsal dinner is the perfect time for those speeches you don’t want shared on the wedding day. Some couples allow an open floor policy for family and friends to share their well wishes and intimate stories. This gives everyone an opportunity, and it’s so heartfelt without the pressure of a huge wedding ceremony speech.
3.) Extra quality time
If families don’t live close, the rehearsal dinner is a special opportunity to spend extra time together before the wedding day craziness. This also gives everyone a chance to discuss preparations, arrival times, and meet the event planner.
We always hear how quickly the wedding festivities fly by so make the most out of your rehearsal dinner.
