Hi ladies!
Would it be rude to give out our wedding party gifts at the rehearsal dinner? Our dinner is going to be the wedding party (and their plus ones) along with family and close friends who are flying in. We would put the bags in the corner or something until everyone is heading out and then we would pass them out to the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Is it rude to do this and not get anything else for the other guests who attend the rehearsal dinner? Should we get all guests a small favor so it's not awkward? Also, due to scheduling, work, and distance to the venue we aren't actually going to rehearse, so we'll just see people that day at dinner.
Unfortunately 50% of both our parties are out of town or state and we won't have the opportunity to really pass them out as a group beforehand. The other option would be to run around town dropping them off at hotels or just whenever we see them since a few will be flying in a couple days prior, but I think it'd be nice to pass them out altogether. Our wedding is also an hour outside of town so I'm not sure we really want to bring them out to the venue where they'll have to keep track of them at the end of the night.
Any suggestions?
