Here is a meeting place for those in love and planning their own "greatest celebration"; a haven for our magisterial couples of years past whose memories should always be a couple keystrokes away; and a warm welcome for those recently inaugurated into the living dream of their Forest House wedding.

Things to accomplish during the wedding rehearsal

Rehearsal dinners are a great way for bridal parties and families to get to know each other, relax and prepare for the big day to come. Your rehearsal dinner can be anything from a formal event, themed party or a casual jeans and t-shirt styled event.

Here are a few things that you "take care of" at your rehearsal dinner:

Thank you's to family and friends for all their love and support; we have all been to the wedding where dozens of family and friends want to talk... let them say what they want but do it at the rehearsal dinner.

Hand out gifts to your bridesmaids, groomsmen and family ( if doing gifts)

Groomsman cake- Why spend the money on a grooms cake just to have it make a 30 second appearance? Display the grooms cake at your rehearsal and use it as your dessert for after the rehearsal dinner as well.

Slide shows- Slide shows are a great way to reflect with family and friends on where you came from and what you've become. Use the rehearsal dinner as an intimate opportunity to reflect with the people that mean the most to you.
