I actually do know someone that did that...they looked stunning too! Here is my friend Melissa in her mom's gown (she had it cut to the knees) for her rehearsal.
I cut my mom's dress up to make a ring bearers pillow, so I couldn't do that.
My rehearsal dinner was wedding party (their dates), and family (my dad and uncle, his mom, dad, his dad's fiance, her three adult children and their dates). In all it was about 30 people. We had it at a nice restaurant. His dad paid for everything (including alcohol). There was a special menu where we could pick from 5 dinner choices, etc. It was really nice. We had our own room.
