Dinner Rehearsal
I`m the mother of the groom and my husband and I are paying for the rehearsal dinner. Are we obligated to invite our out of town guests? Who exactly is suppose to be invited? I feel that I should invite my sisters and brothers and their spouses and also their married children.

At the Rehearsal dinner, guests include parents of the bride and groom, siblings of the bride and groom, members of the wedding party,
The officiant, and the spouses / fiances/ fiancees/ significant others of each of those guests. There is no reason to invite out of town guests. The rehearsal dinner is usually for immediate family members and members of the bridal party. (According to ettiquete)
You may invite as many people as the space of the location and your finances allow and you wish to invite.
Hope that helps.
