The rehearsal dinner is an under-the-radar wedding event. It tends to sneak up on you in planning, and the etiquette and norms are less cut-and-dried than the wedding, bachelorette party, and bridal shower. 

But we’re firm believers that you can plan a rehearsal dinner to be way more fun than anyone expects. There’s virtually no pressure. You get to gather with your closest people without the stress of the big day, and you get to really see your wedding come to life for the first time.

One of the planning steps is sending out wedding rehearsal dinner invitations! This is the best time to lean into digital invitations (well, any time is the perfect time for a digital invite, in our opinion!). Guests will get the details immediately, and you don’t need to go through the chore of printing and stamping and sealing envelopes … only for guests to lose the invite and text you on the day of asking for details. It’s all in their inbox, and reminders can be sent to them automatically leading up to the rehearsal.

So let’s dive into your rehearsal dinner plan. We’ll share plenty of invitations you can use right now along with advice on wording, etiquette, and who to invite.
