Yes.. there will be a rehearsal on the AD itself for us too...
actually, we didn't request for this trial run... it was just arranged for us by the hotel. I was told it is normally 2 weeks before. For our engagement and my parents' wedding anniversary dinners at different hotels, we also had this trial run 2 weeks before leh... I thought it is a standard thing.
we're having montages and having live music during our wedding.. .so it's very important for us to have the trial run. Also, our friends giving speeches, our emcee, and our overall coordinator also said they would feel more assured if they had a rehearsal before the AD date.
