Are you looking for fun and unique rehearsal dinner invitations to send to your closest family and friends? In this blog post, you’ll learn some creative ideas for rehearsal dinner invitations that will impress guests and make the celebration sound more fun and laid-back. Instead of a basic invite, these fun rehearsal dinner invitations set the stage for a fun celebration of the couple before the wedding day.
Rehearsal Dinner Invitation Etiquette
While the invitation includes the crucial details of the event, that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. Rehearsal dinner invitation etiquette states you should include the following items:
• The Couple’s First Names
• Rehearsal Dinner: The words indicate to your guests what the event is
• Date
• Time
• Location
• RSVP by Date and Phone Number or Email Address
You’re perfectly in line with proper etiquette as long as you include the above items on a rehearsal dinner invitation.
Uniquely Worded Invitations
Now, those are the essentials… but that doesn’t mean it has to be basic. Have fun with it! Utilize creative themes — like an, I Do Barbecue — or tie in a location that is meaningful to the couple. If you’re hosting your own rehearsal dinner, feel free to make it lowkey and fun like “Eat, drink, rehearse”: nice and easy.
While the rehearsal dinner can be a fancy event, that doesn’t mean it has to be formal. As a rule of thumb, you do not want to overshadow the formality of the wedding with the rehearsal dinner. It is best to keep it casual and light, with fun rehearsal dinner invitation wording to match.
Here are the most fun rehearsal dinner invitation examples to give your guests a sense of the celebration ahead and make it a lighthearted celebration ahead of the wedding day.
