Activity for Mehgan

I usually find answers to my questions in past forums but I couldn't find one for a rehearsal dinner in a park. Has anyone ever done it? We were looking at restaurant prices and it just seems very expensive. We also have a lot of out of town guests...

Who buys the bridesmaids dresses?? Is it too much to ask the bridesmaids to pay for the dress themselves??

I found our photographer but her price is $2500 with a second shooter-- (all day)- is that overpriced??

Where did everyone style and print their save the dates??
