I don't love our rehearsal dinner restaurant...

amee, on June 26, 2012 at 7:37 PM Posted in Planning 0 9

So, my fiance picked the restaurant for our rehearsal dinner, and I don't really love it. I don't know if I'm making too big of a deal, and should just leave it, or continue to look for something I'd be happier with. I want everyone to be able to relax and have a good time, without us paying a bunch of money, but we won't be in a private room or anything... I don't know if I should just leave it or keep looking. we also can't have it at anyone's house. I'm just not really sure what to do...

    I agree with Cyndi. This is nothing to fret over.

    What they said^^

    It's not like you won't be at your own table, and it is just the rehearsal dinner. You don't have to love every little detail. It will drive you crazy trying to find only things you love.

    Is it just not having a private room that you're unhappy with? Or did he go an pick a place where you hate the food or something?

    Overall, I think this isn't much to worry about. If my FH researched and picked out anything on his own, I think I'd jump for joy! I'm sure you have plenty of other details to think about.

    If this is something your FH has researched, I would see how strongly he likes it. If he is on the fence, than look together. If he loves it, leave it alone.

    Cydni....I love Pizza Hut! I have to get dressed up, go to a Church and then to a formal dinner for Cate's. Her ILs are hosting. I would much rather be in yoga pants, chugging beer, errr, I mean drinking beer and eating pizza.

    We're not even doing a RH Dinner.

    I would just leave it.

    What exactly is the issue that you don't like with the location? Ours was just a back table in a fancier chinese/sushi/other types of food buffet. Everyone loved it.

    I agree with the above, if this is one of the fewer aspects of involvement FH has had, just stay with this..the RD is more about the people you are with, not the location.

    We hosted our RD at Portillos. People drank fishbowl-sized beers and ate greasy yummy Italian beef sandwiches. Smiley smile Most of our WP had traveled across the country that day, the last thing they wanted to do was get all dressed up and have some schmancy dinner.

    As long as you have a reserved place to sit so you guys don't have to wait for tables, I would not stress. Just communicate to your WP if it's casual/formal/whatever so they know how to dress.

    If it's far away or there's some other logistics issue, or if you hate the food or something, then maybe talk to him about changing it. Otherwise - RD check! Next project! Smiley smile
