People staying in the hotel?It all depends. Anyone staying in the hotel will get invited, out of town guests are invited, close family is invited, the wedding party is invited. If your birdesmaids / groomsmen have significant others than they should be included too. If your bridesmaids / groomsmen are bringing a random plus 1 as a date then you can potentially leave them out of the rehearsal dinner since there is a strong chance that the relationship may end at some point and that person will be in your pics forever.
People staying in the hotel?
Ive always figured it was for people in the wedding plus first order relatives (parents, siblings, children who arent in the wedding) and their significant others.
I mean people staying in the hotel and out of town guests plus everyone in the wedding and close relatives could end up being most of your wedding guests. And you are expected to feed them twice?
Rehearsal Dinner is after the rehearsal...Those that attend plus only close family go to the dinner. But yes, their significant other or date should be invited as well. The dates in no way have to be in any pictures...
This. A good idea is to have a quasi party somewhere to have all of the out of town guests come to meet there. They shouldn't be included in the dinner though.
Yes.How about this question? Do the siblings of the groom, along with their spouses AND CHILDREN, get invited to the rehearsal dinner if they are not participants in the wedding ceremony? My sister is having one maid of honor and one best man. No others in the wedding party.

I thought the hotel guests thing was breakfast the morning after the wedding if they choose to get up and come with everyone.
