I believe the standard is immediate family, wedding party & date and guests that traveled from out of town.

The out of town part is pretty flexible...
otherwise I'll have like 300 at my rehearsal dinner

Yeah I think out-of-town family is a pretty good dividing line. Like, siblings, grandparents, aunts and uncles, and maybe first cousins from out of town.

Yeah.

Have your bros bring some liquor for under the wedding party table.

Yeah, we have it all planned. Jack is stocked in the back for me and Ms. Wacky's dad. Vodka for the ladies.

LQCC may not dig that, keep it on the DL.  Generally they want to wet their beak if you cheaping out on the mark up they get from drinks by the glass

Yeah, we know. They usually do it for us at the ccgt. I wanted to bring margaritas Mexican in, but they wouldn't have it. The Z's are able to take care of the behind stuff for the initial family. I'd hope we were the last of their worries after that night.

Out of town family belongs at the rehearsal dinner because you will probably not get a chance to talk to them the next day

Oh hey, wacky. I'm rolling through KC on July 1. Mind if I stop for dinner? Meatballs and cheese with a couple of cold ones sounds great. :D

we had aunts and uncles for our rehearsal dinner.

same. we invited wedding party, immediate family, and out of town family (which was everyone else) I think we had like 85-90 at our rehearsal. Honestly I had way more fun at that than I did at the reception. the place we had it had a great beer selection and even had an awesome beer cellar that they let us raid. So much Chimay, Trappistes Rochefort, etc...some of these bottles were probably valued $20-$25, All included in the drink package we bought.

Also, pie bar for dessert  :love:

Really doesn't matter who you invite to the rehearsal dinner, as long as it's consistent. Like, we only invited wedding party +1, officiant/spouse, and immediate family (including grandparents.) Wanted to do out of town guests as well, but my wife's family had like a million out of town guests, and I had like three. Would have felt pretty shitty a) asking my parents to pay like a billion dollars to host a family reunion for my wife's extended family (the inevitable result of them ever getting together anywhere) or b) only inviting some of my wife's family from out of town and offending everyone that wasn't invited. My relatives from out of town threw a fit until I calmly explained to them the situation, then they apologized for being cunts. Everything worked out great.

Engagement Encounter is what it used to be called, so not sure if this is a fanning moment or if they changed the name. It is the same thing I bet.

Wacky you were dangerously close to having to speak outloud in a group setting about feelings. Dangerously close.
