German-inspired Elements for an Oktoberfest Rehearsal Dinner<\/h2>\n

\"Oktoberfest<\/p>\n

Let your bridal party members know what fun awaits them, with Oktoberfest-themed rehearsal dinner party invitations<\/a> (1 – via Zazzle<\/strong>) like these.<\/p>\n

Greet them at the venue with a Biergarten welcome sign<\/a> (7 – by Courtney Sixx, via Martha Stewart Weddings<\/strong>). Then, lay out each table setting<\/a> (2 – via Savor Paradise<\/strong>) with charming Oktoberfest accessories, including a centerpiece in a Bavarian-style beer stein<\/a> (2 – via Savor Paradise<\/strong>) and a framed Oktoberfest menu<\/a> (3 – via The Knot<\/strong>).\u00a0For light \u201cbeer garden\u201d fare, treat guests to a DIY Oktoberfest pretzel stand<\/a> (4 – Cafe Pierrot<\/strong>), featuring soft pretzels with a beer cheese dip<\/a> (6 – from PS Seasoning & Spices<\/strong>). Plus a dessert table<\/a> (5 – Cafe Pierrot<\/strong>) displaying a fully decorated Oktoberfest cake.<\/p>\n

Keep the guest favors in theme, too. Think wooden bottle openers<\/a> (8 – by Courtney Sixx, via Martha Stewart Weddings<\/strong>) mounted on bottles of vintage beer.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/p>\n

Then, for fitting refreshments, set up a rustic beverage station<\/a> (9 – via Pinterest<\/strong>) offering a variety of German beers. Bags of pretzels trimmed with Oktoberfest favor tags<\/a> (10 – via Amazon<\/strong>) and playful \u201cKiss Me, I\u2019m German\u201d buttons<\/a> (12 – via Zazzle<\/strong>).<\/p>\n

Finally, for great souvenir shots with the bridal party, the bride can change into a German dirndl dress<\/a> (11 – via Amazon<\/strong>) and the groom can don traditional Bavarian leather pants<\/a> (13 – via Amazon<\/strong>). A fun way to remember this Oktoberfest-themed occasion!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
