More Than Just a Rehearsal Dinner

The wedding planning is done, everything is in order for the big day tomorrow... the ceremony rehearsal is finished and now it's time to really get the party started! Instead of just making your rehearsal dinner an extension of your wedding, consider the option to make it a personal, fun, and unique event all its own.
This is the event where you really get to enjoy the company of your closest family and friends from near and far without all the activity of the wedding day, without a photographer following your every move, and while you are still wearing an amazing (although a little more comfortable) outfit!
The Knot has some creative and fun ideas for making the rehearsal dinner more than just a meal at a restaurant-- check out that article right here! 
And don't forget some of the key elements to any memorable rehearsal dinner: 
Toasts: If the groom's parents are hosting the rehearsal dinner then they would give a toast to the new bride-to-be and her family (around dessert time). Sometimes the groom will also follow with a short speech to bride's family and bride as well.
Gift giving: The rehearsal dinner is the perfect opportunity for the bride and groom to give their bridal party their gifts and to thank them for being a part of their wedding celebration.
Whatever you do to celebrate your rehearsal, make it fun, memorable, and personal... something meaningful that everyone will remember!
