rehearsal??

joycer55

So I have been searching this board since getting engaged in August and i have to say it has been amazing!! I am getting married September 22, 2012.  This is where i am  so far 

-Wedding at primrose courtyard at the wynn

-Bentley and Wilson for 4 hours of photography

-Maggianno's for dinner

We are going to have a rehearsal at the wynn and im wondering if there are some ideas for what to do after?  I will be have about 75 guests in las vegas, and approximately 30 for the rehearsal??  We have our room at maggiano's for 4 hours and we are having a reception back home, but i think its neccessary to have some sort of entertainment or music. Any ideas??

We're doing our "Meet & Greet" (in lieu of a traditional rehearsal dinner with just the wedding party) with all of our guests in a big suite-- just keeping things casual with pizza and cupackes and drinks, but that might be a cost-effective way to host them.

Out of curiosity-- sounds like you're having a fair amount of guests in Vegas...why the at home reception too?

I'm going to echo PP's suggestions of an in-suite event after your rehearsal. Although, if you're staying at the Wynn be advised that there's a maximum capacity for their tower suites, I think it was of 20 people or so but I might be wrong. The next option up would be a fairway villa.

Otherwise you could take everyone to a buffet. Or maybe to the new Pizza place inside the Wynn.

We did a rehearsal dinner in our suite for 30.  We ran through the schedule for the next day but didn't actually rehearse.

If I read your post correctly, you are doing a 4 hour RD at Maggiano's?  There is no need for anything else, IMO.

75 people seems like a fairly big wedding (to me anyway).  Why the need for an AHR?
