Francesca’s is a popular location for Syracuse wedding rehearsals. We specialize in both indoor and outdoor rehearsal dinner parties. Recently Jocena and Matt had a beautiful wedding rehearsal dinner at Francesca’s. They are frequent patrons of the restaurant and knew that Francesca’s Cucina was the perfect spot for their Syracuse wedding rehearsal dinner.
They started the evening with a lovely outdoor cocktail reception. Passed hors de vours were served. The couple chose oysters (a romantic food) as their signature appetizer. They then moved inside the private banquet room for a family style dinner. A special custom menu was created for the couple. If you, or someone you know is planning a rehearsal dinner please feel free to call us at 315-409-8848.
