HELP! Rehearsal Dinner Question

What is the etiquette on rehearsal Dinner invitations. Do we need to invite every OOT guest? What if the majority of the wedding guests are from OOT? Also, regarding immediate family, are cousins included? Aunts and uncles?

Re: HELP! Rehearsal Dinner Question

Our guests were a majority of OOT. So we stuck to bridal party, parents, our Godmothers (who were also bringing up the gifts during the mass), and a few other family members. We had a total of 37 people there (total guests at wedding: 91).

Re: HELP! Rehearsal Dinner Question

We have a fair number of OOT guests and only invited the bridal party and their spouses/significant others, grandparents, and aunts/uncles with their spouses/significant others(parent's siblings).

Our siblings are in our bridal party but if that's not the case you should invite your immediate families with their spouses/significant others.

We did not invite children.

Re: HELP! Rehearsal Dinner Question

We had only two OOT so we invited them to the rehersal dinner, but if I had a lot of them, I would only invite the people involved with the wedding. That way, the rehearsal dinner isn't another expense but more like a thank to everyone for being a part of your wedding day.
