Questions to ask wedding rehearsal dinner venues
Discuss private dining, group menus, guest numbers, accessibility, and how the timing fits around your rehearsal.
Make the conversation specific to your wedding
Bring your date, location and an outline of the service you are considering. Ask the vendor to explain how their approach would work for your plans, using examples of comparable events. Write down what is included and anything you need to confirm later.
Choose a setting for easy conversation
Think about who is attending and how the meal follows the rehearsal. A private room, restaurant area or relaxed outdoor setting can work well if guests can hear one another. Check seating arrangements and the space available for short speeches.
Keep the timing and bill clear
Compare group menus, drinks, minimum spend and room hire. Confirm arrival time, meal service and when the space must be vacated. Share dietary requests and ask how the venue handles changes to guest numbers.
