Thank you so much for your interest in sharing your wedding rehearsal dinner, wedding welcome party, and/or real pre-wedding celebration event with Let’s Get Rehearsed. This helpful and practical website and resource guide would be nothing without your submissions, so thank you in advance for your interest.

Let’s Get Rehearsed is a wedding planning website resource specifically dedicated to wedding rehearsal dinners, wedding weekend welcome celebrations, wedding welcome parties, wedding kick-off parties, and other pre-wedding celebratory events that happen before the wedding ceremony and reception.

With real pre-wedding events, ideas, advice, etiquette, and shopping resources, our goal is to inspire and help engaged couples, as well as their family and friends, plan a stress-free wedding rehearsal dinner or pre-wedding celebration party.

We gladly and gratefully welcome submissions from all wedding professionals, and engaged or married couples. We do things a little differently around here, so please look around our site first and read our full submission guidelines below before submitting.

REAL PRE-WEDDING EVENTS & CELEBRATIONS

We are looking for unique and personal pre-wedding events and celebrations that feature a real couple, including but not limited to wedding rehearsal dinners, wedding weekend welcome parties and wedding kick-off parties. This includes pre-wedding events in all locations, regions, venues, budgets, styles and types from all couples.

Real event submissions must include a minimum of 10 photos, but no more than 75 photos, that are a diverse mix from throughout the entire event, including photos of the couple and any inspiring or unique details, such as flowers and table decor. Please limit the number of dancing photos and candid photos of guests. (These photos are great for the couple, but not well suited for a website.) We try to show our readers the entire event from start to finish. Submissions must include a short description of the event, email contact information for the couple, and a participating vendor list including website links.

If your submission is accepted, the couple will be contacted by Let’s Get Rehearsed and asked to fill out a short questionnaire. If the couple does not respond to the questionnaire within two weeks or declines to be featured, the submission will not be published.

For videographers, real video submissions must include photographs. The video must be a highlight, short or trailer type of video (5 minutes or less).

STYLED EVENTS

We feature a very limited amount of styled or editorial pre-wedding and events that are not real or from a real couple. In addition to being an inspiration site, we are specifically focused on helping our readers plan a stress-free event. As such, we are looking for styled or editorial events that are also practical and helpful. When submitting, please include how your styled pre-wedding event is helpful to real couples besides being inspirational.

Styled shoot submissions should be 50 to 75 photos, including a participating vendor list with a link to their website, a detailed description of the idea or inspiration, and helpful advice for how couples can incorporate your ideas into their own pre-wedding event.

TIPS & ADVICE

The goal of Let’s Get Rehearsed is to help engaged couples and their family and friends plan a stress-free pre-wedding celebration. We write many advice-based articles that help our readers in their planning journey. If you have an idea for an advice post or you’d like to contribute to a new article, please email us at letsgetrehearsed@gmail.com. The best advice posts, quotes and contributions are practical, helpful and on topics that we have not covered previously.
