Rehearsal Dinner in Sarasota

Jacqueline, on February 28, 2019 at 8:56 PM Posted in Florida Planning 1 3

Hi Everyone!

I'm planning my destination wedding in Sarasota, Florida. I'm from Indiana! I'm having so much trouble finding a venue for my rehearsal dinner. We will have about 45 people and it would be on February 21, 2020. Most restaurants either don't have the capacity or don't want to host a rehearsal dinner during season. My reception will be at the Ritz Carlton so I want the rehearsal dinner to be a little more casual so as not to upstage or compete with the Ritz. Also, not trying to spend an arm and a leg Smiley laugh So far the only restaurant that could accommodate us is Chart House which is beautiful but probably outside of our budget. Does anyone who knows the area have any suggestions?! TIA! Smiley heart

    Hi Jacqueline! Welcome to WeddingWire!! Smiley ring I don't know if this is too casual, but could you go to somewhere like a Chinese restaurant or a pizza place? I don't know of any specific restaurants, but I know that in my area, those types of places are large enough and casual enough for that big of a rehearsal dinner.

    Try "Social Eatery and bar", they have outdoor seating so may be able to accommodate a larger party. The weather should be perfect that time of the year to be outdoors.
