Rehearsal Dinner no no?

I recently went to a rehearsal dinner which was very informal. Everyone went to Buffalo Wild Wings. Nothing fancy, no speeches, just everyone relaxing before we parted ways. When the bill came - everyone just paid for their own. We were definitely fine with it. I was considering doing something...

I recently went to a rehearsal dinner which was very informal. Everyone went to Buffalo Wild Wings. Nothing fancy, no speeches, just everyone relaxing before we parted ways. When the bill came - everyone just paid for their own. We were definitely fine with it.

I was considering doing something similar. With everything that is happening for the wedding we don't have any family help and are running low on budget room. Has anyone else ever seen or done this? I was just thinking of going to a small, local restaurant for dinner after our rehearsal and just having everyone do their own thing. Otherwise maybe we would buy the first round of drinks, but after that people covered their own.

Thoughts?

    I'm glad you asked this, because I have been putting this very thing off due to me not knowing what the heck I am going to do. I need to face the music and figure it out lol.

    Weddings are a blessing, but at the same time the reason I have more grey hair now Smiley smile

    And if you have been following the posts most people have the opinion it is a grave mistake to have a dutch rehearsal dinner. And everyone is entitled to their own opinions.

    I am of the opinion, I think now, that I will do everything I can to provide my WP with dinner, but if that doesn't happen, I know that whatever we end up doing will be great and they will know we appreciate all they do!

    Well, if you replace it with SOMETHING for them, that's different. Saying you will cut it out all together implies you were doing NOTHING for them.
