The best possible way to save money on a rehearsal dinner is to make a small meal in a restaurant, with only the closest people present. Don’t rent a venue or restaurant, just book a table or gazebo or something like that. If you invite more guests than your parents and wedding party, think about asking them to pay for their order or part of the order. Also, serve non-alcoholic drinks or only wine and beer – it’s cheaper and your guests will be in a better shape on the wedding day if they drink less.
