Rehearsal Dinner (restaurant or catering)

I think going through a restaurant would be cheaper and easier!! Otherwise you'll be paying to rent a place, cater food and booze, serve the food, set-up and clean-up, provide tables, chairs, linens, etc.!

Country clubs are also great for this size event - they typically have a few different private rooms and do lots of events. It's just really easy for restaurants and country clubs to execute!

We're having our "reception" at a restaurant. We anticipate about 20 people coming, and it was drastically cheaper to hold dinner at a nice restaurant vs. a reception.
