Stress-Free Rehearsal Dinner
The wedding is the main event, for sure, but the rehearsal isn’t any less important or memorable. Surrounded by your fabulous bridal party, closest family, and friends— the rehearsal is part of your wedding story and should reflect elegance, but also fun! Having your event at a restaurant can get costly, but even more so it can cause you to potentially lose that intimate atmosphere due to other dining patrons. At Southside Loft, you have our full attention. We can take your rehearsal dinner to the next level and make sure this event is completely about you and your special guests. We won’t be distracted by other customers and can ensure that this event fits your specific bridal style and your budget!
