If you are asking what the meal is, this can be either casual to formal; it follows the rehearsal and is also called the grooms dinner. The wedding party attends this and is the last time these individuals are together before the ceremony when everyone is 'on' and has other responsibilities. It is a time to toast each other and each family to bond before the big day. Some have a BBQ and keep it relaxed others go all out in a favorite restaurant. Just try not to overdo this if it is the night before....

Etiquette rules for the rehearsal dinner are much more relaxed than that of the wedding. The rehearsal dinner is usually seen as an informal way for the two families to spend some time together before the big day, and an opportunity for the Bride and Groom-to-be to thank those who have helped contribute.

Whilst there are no formal seating traditions, it would probably be expected for the Bride and Groom to be sat with both sets of parents and possibly the Best Man and Maid of Honor.
