Who exactly is included in the rehearsal dinner? I am the bride, and my parent's are divorced and both have significant others... Are the bride's parents included at the rehearsal dinner? If so, how would this be handled?

You should invite everyone included in the wedding ceremony (ushers, bridesmaids, bestman, maid of honor, flowergirl, ring bearer, officiate, etc.) Spouses or dates of all adult attendants should be invited. Parents (divorced parents new spouses or partners), grandparents and siblings of the bride and groom should be invited. If children are involved in the wedding, the children and their parents should be invited. If there are out of town guests staying over it is considerate to invite these people as well.
Regarding your parents, if they and their new partners all get along then there shouldn't be any issues but if they don't simply seat them apart. Hopefullt the distance can make everyone more comfortable. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
