More and more bridal parties are choosing to have catered rehearsal dinners rather than renting out a restaurant like so many others have done in the past. The catering service is a wonderful and smart alternative to the original rehearsal dinner in the dining room of a restaurant. Emilio’s of Morris Park in Bronx, NY, is a favorite Italian restaurant in the area that offers pizza and pasta catering.

Their staff shares some of the reasons you may want to hire a catering service for your rehearsal dinner rather than taking everyone out to a restaurant:

Location

It can be tough to find a restaurant that has food you love with an ambiance that’s perfect for your event. Catering allows you to hold your rehearsal dinner anywhere you like. Whether it’s in your backyard or at a high-end venue, you have absolute flexibility on where to have your dinner. This is a much better alternative to being stuck with whatever spaces the restaurant has available.

Cuisine

While there are many aspects to your rehearsal dinner, the food is what your guests will remember. When renting out a restaurant, the price of incredible cuisine can add up quickly. Catering allows you to get the same great food at a reduced price, since there’s limited service required and the restaurant will not need to provide a space for you. You can stick within your budget without sacrificing on food quality.

Privacy

Unless you can afford to completely rent out a restaurant, there may be other uninvited diners in the room at your rehearsal dinner. The restaurant will need to continue serving their other customers while holding your event. A catered event, on the other hand, can be a completely private affair. Having a separate space just for your friends, family and loved ones makes the event much more enjoyable.

If you’d like a delicious and affordable dinner that your guests will love, Italian cuisine is the best choice.
