If you're hosting a rehearsal dinner and need to bring in the majority of the decor to the space, it's important to start with essentials. Ahead, we share some of the rehearsal dinner decorations you need, as well as chic shoppable options you can easily add to your cart.
Pretty Dinner Party Plates
Lay the foundation of your rehearsal dinner decorations with your dinnerware. Choose plates with unique patterns to add some style to your spread.
Tablecloths to Treasure
You also should consider whether or not you want to have bare tables or cover them with a decorative linen. A floral pattern is perfect for a spring celebration.
Colorful Cloth Napkins
Step up your tablescape by offering guests cloth napkins at your rehearsal dinner. Coordinate the shade with your event's palette to enhance the aesthetic of your event.
Silverware That Makes a Statement
Don't forget to stock up on silverware for your guests. While you can get classic forks and knives, consider choosing a set in matte black or gilded gold.
Keep It Classic With Your Wine Glasses
Whether you're serving wine, mixed drinks, or mocktails, a wine glass is always a helpful vessel to have at your table. Make sure you have one to two glasses prepared for each guest at your rehearsal.
