[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, are you seriously telling me you haven’t so much as Googled “rehearsal dinner White Sands Resort” or whatever the name of the place is? :roll:[/quote]

I’m practically a professional Googler and I spent years working in restaurants in a former life, and I wouldn’t want to choose a venue this way. Recommendations from people in the party planning business and/or who know the area well would be my preference.

There’s a lot that can go wrong trying to plan a long distance dinner for 65 people. I can see how it feels stressful for OP. [/quote]

It’s “stressful” to call a hotel concierge and ask for a recommendation, or even to book a hotel ballroom and a caterer approved by the hotel?

OK.

It’s “stressful” to call literally the same wedding caterer and get a quote for a rehearsal dinner?

OK.[/quote]

The stressful part is that the OP is in unfamiliar territory and presumably wants to make a good impression for her son’s sake. Sure, she can book the hotel ballroom sight unseen, but maybe it’s a sad, windowless room and the food at the hotel is mediocre.

A destination wedding locale will likely have a few “IYKYK” kind of spots that will make for a more special evening. [/quote]

OP should pick up the phone or email a few planners herself. [/quote]
