Alternate "title" for Rehearsal Dinner?

Nancy, on February 23, 2016 at 12:17 PM Posted in Planning 0 6

I am having a DW with approx 50 guests. We are not having any attendants/bridal party. But we are having a "run through/rehearsal" with the parents and officiant the afternoon before the wedding. The night before our wedding, my fiancé parents are hosting ALL guests for dinner and drinks at a local restaurant. I want to include an invitation to this dinner with our wedding invitation. But for some reason, Im afraid to title the invite "Rehearsal Dinner" as doesn't that imply it's for wedding party participants? Is there another title appropriate for this dinner invite? Or is "Rehearsal Dinner" the best title ? Thoughts ? Thanks!!

    Welcome Dinner or Cocktail Welcome, depending on how much food you're serving.

    My FILs are hosting our rehearsal dinner but they invited all out of town guests which amount to a decent-sized wedding that necessitates and RSVP (approx 150 people). We used Welcome Dinner but we also saw a simple 'Dinner the Night Before' on wedding invites we were looking at.

    We're calling it a "Welcome Picnic"

    We're also calling it "Welcome Picnic". If inside you could go with "welcome dinner"

    I agree with the other posts, a "Welcome Dinner" sounds more appropriate.
