Down South we know all about that southern charm!

 
Let’s talk about the elements here. Clean and Simple!
  • Clean white dish clothes or cotton towels with a maroon color trim as the table runner
  • Various sized vases to hold the beautiful fall colored flowers
  • Simple white chairs, white china, and cloth napkins in various reds and various patterns
Now it’s time for the food! Here are some delicious dishes from the Glendalough Manor ‘South of the Mason Dixon’ Rehearsal Dinner Menu:
  • Tossed mixed field green salad
  • Biscuits with Honey Butter
  • Country Fried Steak with White Gravy
  • Fried Chicken with Peach BBQ sauce
  • Sweet Corn on the Cob
  • Mashed Potatoes
  • Banana Pudding
Mmm Mmm!!! Bye bye, now!

Rehearsal Dinner Ideas: ITALIAN ROMANCE!

Mio Amore!

This theme has all of my favorites – pasta, wine, and kisses!

I just love this sweet idea from Martha Stewart. The bright vases against the black and white tablecloth really pop! Bring in the wine theme with actual wine bottles as your centerpieces or to number your tables. I love the use of corks sprinkled on the tables too!

Now all that’s left is the menu! Here are some delicious dishes on Glendalough’s Italian Rehearsal Dinner Menu:

  • Fresh Caesar Sald with Croutons

  • Caprese Salad with homemade balsamic glaze

  • Meat or Vegetable Lasagna

  • Chicken Parmesan over Angel Hair Pasta

  • Cannolis

Buon Appetito!

L’amore è per sempre! (Love is Forever!)

Rehearsal Dinner Ideas: FIESTA!

Let’s talk about themes!

This one is for my MOG’s (Mother of the Groom). We have quite a few rehearsal dinners here at Glendalough Manor. If a bride is having her wedding here, we waive the room rental for the rehearsal dinner! The only cost is food and beverages! So what can you do with that extra cash you saved?? I’m happy to share some super cute ideas!

Say it with me…FIESTA

Go on! Have a fiesta!! I love these paper flower balls in those beautiful bold colors. If you can’t find some great neon centerpieces, just use spray paint! It’s pretty inexpensive to get those small white or silver pales at your local craft store. Just add hot pink, lime green, and sunset orange and BAM…you’ve got a fiesta! 

This theme is perfect for Glendalough Manor’s Mexican Fiesta Rehearsal Dinner Menu! Here is a little taste of this delicious and festive menu:

  • Mexican Tossed Salad
  • Steak and Chicken Fajitas
  • Cheese Enchiladas
  • Mexican Rice
  • Ranchero Beans
  • Chips and Salsa (Salsa-Mango, Chipolte, and Pico de Gallo)
  • Cinnamon Crisps and Vanilla Ice Cream

ENJOY!
