The Pre- Party
T
he best part of a
rehearsal dinner is that
it’s supposed to be less
formal than your wed-
ding, so anything goes, especially if
you’re having a destination wedding.
You might want your rehearsal dinner
to have an open invitation to all of your
wedding guests. That way, a “meet
and greet” rehearsal dinner lets every-
one get to know each other before the
wedding.
If you decide to throw a party the day
before, it doesn’t have to look or feel
like a “rehearsal dinner” at all! In fact,
you can have a rehearsal breakfast if
you want! The point is, you just want
to spend more time with loved ones.
A perfect setting for you and your
guests to relax and mingle is on the
water aboard a SIP N' SAIL CRUISE.
Whether it be a bachelorette party, the
14 Mackinac Island Wedding Guide
wedding ceremony or rehearsal din-
ner, it’s a great idea for memorable fun.
Sail under the Mighty Mackinac Bridge
and enjoy the beautiful views of the
Island from the water. The Isle Royale
Queen III is a beautifully appointed 81
foot steel hull Coast Guard certif ied
vessel easily accommodating parties
of up to 70 people. Live music for your
cruise can be arranged f rom a host
of entertainers along with DJ’s or just
kick back with your own play list. Call
for more details at 844-906-9006.
Tucked away f rom Main St. next to
Ste. Anne Church, is the HARBOUR
VIEW INN. It has many advantages
for couples wanting a private, sophis-
ticated rehearsal dinner. The charm-
ing dining room accommodates up
to 50 guests comfortable in style with
French doors lining the room, leading
to a terrace, providing Indoor and out-
door seating. The private setting offers
