We’re planning what I guess you would say would be a Rehearsal Dinner of sorts. We’re not actually rehsearing ahead of time. At this point, everyone in the bridal party has done this a dozen times, and we’re planning a very short ceremony. The dinner is going to be more of a “thank you” event for the bridal party and our families.

Is there anything cute/creative we can call this when sending the invites?

We are having something really similar, but it will be a Destination Wedding, so we are calling it a welcome party/cocktail party, because we are only doing appetizers and alcohol.

We’re inviting everyone so we didn’t want to call it a “rehearsal dinner” so we’re going with “Welcome Dinner”.

You could simply call it a thank you dinner. It makes clear what the point of the evening is.
