Rehersal Dinner Locations
The Striped Bass on the Outdoor Patio:
--Lawyer707: it was amazing. The food was great and the staff was so attentive. I couldn't have asked for better weather either :D
Little Sorrentos:
--BellaSposa223: This is the same resturaunt we got engaged in. The food is phenominal and it's a great family atmosphere. The owners really do treat my family like their own; I'm very much looking foward to the rehearsal dinner.
Charlie Browns:
--PrincessJessica (Fishkill): We had about 30 people who were invited to RD (bridal party, participants, significant others etc). Charlie's had a reasonable price for meals ($20/person including soda, iced tea, coffee and dessert). We took up the whole back room which was nice. Everyone enjoyed their meal for the most part, and it was quite meaningful since that was the restaurant where DH and I first met. My sister dealt with them the most (she pd for it since MIL couldn't do a darn thing for the wedding-including showing up on time), and she had no issues with them at all!
Bella Luna:
--Chrisnjay2010: . Its a small local italian restaurant. The food is always great and its a nice atmosphere :) I just booked it this weekend!
Hudson River Cruise:
--LPQueenie99: had it catered by a local resturant--it was a little chilly in October, but it was awesome! Plus, it was really cool because most of our guests weren't from the area--it was beautiful and SO much fun!
Sam's of Gedney Way:
--Siobhanny7: (Outdoor room) It's a New Year's Eve rehearsal - so it should be interesting. The food is fantastic - looking forward to all of it!
Italian Center:
--sb52584: It's kind of a family tradition - my mom and aunts all had their rehearsal dinners there so I wanted to stick to that. Prices are very reasonable and the meals are always good.
La Vera Cucina:
--guerragladys: I loveee their food!
Spiga:
--Jen&Louie: We booked their private room upstairs (we had 25 people - they can fit 40). The food and service were both wonderful and I'd highly recommend them for an RD.
Stonehedge:
--LilJen7755: We love love love their food, hehe!
Umami Cafe:
--AmyRaposiero: We used their side patio room and it was perfect for our wedding party size. Everything was great and it was conveniently located near our church.
Four Brothers Restaraunt:
--TerriandJoe: It's close to the church and has incredible food!
The Old 76 House in Tappan, NJ
Everyone that did things other then being at a restaraunt!
--KitKat956: We are actually having it in our church's ballroom. It's beautiful and it looks like a reception hall to be honest. We thought that this would be easy on our bridal party since many of them have a long drive home. Oh the church is St. Francis De Sales in Vernon, NJ.
--Rblucy: We didn't do a rehearsal, we just had the bridal party and immediate family over the day before for a little open house/gettogether. It was nice and relaxed. We brought in sandwiches from Bagel Boys in Suffern. Our wedding was July 5 so we didn't want to take up everyone's whole July 4 so this allowed everyone to hang out a little and then if they wanted to go to a BBQ or fireworks or something, they still could.
--Princess91309: We had plans to have it at DH's mom's house in the backyard, nice and relaxing, but it poured so we had it at the United American polish Club, which is a disaster i don't recommend it at all, LOL!! It was a total last minute resort, but we had it catered by Frankie & Louie's. As always delicous food, love them!!
