Once you have narrowed your choices down on the room to get married in to a few options it is important to consider a few additional factors such as price, seating capacities and services available. Depending on the theme and color scheme of the wedding, there are a variety of low cost options available.
While a rehearsal dinner is not necessary, it is a good opportunity to get together with close friends and family members to thank them all for their participation and assistance during the planning of the wedding as well as their participation in the actual wedding itself. When buying a bridal shower gift it can be simplified by deciding what category of gift you would like to purchase. If the culture of the bride dominates the ceremony then you could allow the culture of the groom to dominate the reception.
You could even include a recipe card with one of your own personally tested recipes. It is also not appropriate to hold the wedding shower very early in the engagement before the couple has had the opportunity to create their registry. One common practice involving these adjunct parties is to have the bachelors and bachelorettes meet at separate restaurants for dinner and then join each other at a nightclub to cap off the night with some dancing and a few drinks.
Remember when considering price, it is important to factor in what is included in the price that the wedding photographer quotes you. Small gestures such as reserving a block of hotel rooms or putting together a list of tourist attractions as well as more significant gestures such as preparing welcome baskets and making an extra effort to spend time with your out of town guests all contribute to making your out of town guests feel appreciated and welcomed.
