Do You Need a Wedding Rehearsal?

When a wedding rehearsal is genuinely worth it — and when you can skip it.

You probably want one if

  • You have a wedding party of more than a few people
  • Children are participating
  • There are readings, music cues or a complicated entrance
  • Your venue's layout isn't obvious

You can probably skip it if

  • It's just the two of you and a witness or two
  • The ceremony is short and the space is simple
  • Everyone involved can be briefed in five minutes beforehand

Rehearsal attendance and rehearsal dinner attendance are tracked separately on our intake form so your quote reflects what you actually want.

So… which one is your wedding?

A $150 paperwork wedding, or a ceremony built for the two of you.
