Hi ladies! 

What are your thoughts on rehearsal dinner invites? Are they a must? We're trying to save some pennies, so we are just curious if the rehearsal dinner invites are a necessity. 

Is it tacky to just let your people know when and where it is? 

Thanks!

    It depends on how formal the dinner is.  A very formal dinner should have formal written or printed invitations, while verbal or electronic ones would be fine for a backyard dinner.

    We did not do printed invitations for our rehearsal dinner.  Our parents already knew the details.  We just sent out a FB message to WP members and their SO, we called grandparents to give them the information.

    We didn't use invitations. We just verbally told people. 
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

    We're just telling people verbally or by email/facebook/text.  But then again, ours is REALLY informal.

    Invitations aren't necessary. Verbal/email is fine.

    That being said, my FMIL is having invitations made for our rehearsal dinner because she's just so excited about it - it's taking place in a lovely room at a casual restaurant nearby but it's certainly not formal.. So it is okay to have invitations for an informal rehearsal dinner, too.

    We had a formal sit down dinner for our rehearsal so we did paper invites with an RSVP.
