    Very necessary!! I am not going to have everybody do my wedding without having practice on how to do everything! Having people know exactly what to do is a must!

    Necessary. The church even requires it! The dinner after will be really low key and informal though, dont need to do anything fancy for that.

    We aren’t having a rehearsal, but we are getting together the night before to set up and finish last minute things

    I definitely think this is necessary. The last thing I want is for any of us to go in blind and screw some stuff up lol

    I have never actually known of anyone rehearsing the ceremony with the officiant. Although, it might be a good idea if you're really nervous or concerned about flubbing up the ceremony.

    We’re having a very small intimate wedding. It’s a good idea but not sure it’s necessary

    I think it is necessary. We will be having a handfasting and would not know what to do and what to say the day of, even with instructions from the officiant.

    Technically not. However I did have one for mine and it was good because people otherwise woulda been clueless

    Very necessary for us. It will help us keep sane, and be prepared.

    Absolutely necessary in order to coordinate the bridal party, also you can then visualize any changes you might want to make.
