Bridal suite for 2 nights?

Curious on what everyone's thoughts are. I originally booked the bridal suite for just the wedding night and they gave me an earlier checkin for 130. Wedding is at 4. Hair and makeup at 12 at my moms hotel. I was just thinking it might be easier to book the bridal suite for two nights and do hair and makeup in my room instead of being rushed to go from one hotel to the other to get dressed. I would like to get dressed at my hotel because it's just on the next block from the venue and I can walk to the venue. But my moms hotel is at the other side of town so we would have to drive if i got ready at her hotel. The only thing is, if I get the bridal suite for two nights I would be staying there alone on Friday night because of the size. Plus I have to talk fh in to another 135 for that lol. I'm just trying to think of a way to do things smoother. Curious to hear what you ladies think

I'm staying in our bridal suite (hotel suite) the night before! Mine is big enough for all my bridesmaids to sleep there too. That way we can wake up and relax while getting ready and not rush. If only you can sleep there, can you get a more typical room for the girls?

No girls. Just my daughters and they are staying with grandma the night before. The hotel is an original 1800s hotel so the rooms are smaller.

I booked the suite for the night before so I would have no time restraints on getting ready in the room the day of the wedding. My sister and any bridesmaids that want to are going to stay in it with me the night of the rehearsal dinner. I just figure it was so much less stress and that's definitely a plus on your wedding day.

I'm staying in my bridal suite for two nights. Friday and Saturday. My sister is staying with me Friday night and we booked FH a separate room, then obviously Saturday night FH will stay with me. It was easier this way to already have the room and have all of my stuff there, plus we don't have to drive too far after the rehearsal dinner, either.

I’m staying in the bridal suite for two nights so that it’s easier with getting ready. Then I can just wake up the morning of and get ready without being rushed

I stayed in the bridal suite the night before the wedding, too. It was SO much easier to have all my stuff already in the room/unpacked/ready to go the next morning when I woke up.
I prefer sleeping alone so I LOVED having the big suite all to myself that night (it was like an apartment, haha) and just told my BMs what time they needed to come by in the morning. SO convenient.

Thanks girls. I know it would be alot easier to stay 2 nights. Have everything unpacked and ready to go. I have an early day the wedding day an hour away from the venue with a nail appointment and I feel like I'm going to be rushed all day and carrying everything by myself into this old hotel. Now to talk fh into spending more money lol

We’re booking the bridal suite for the night before too, and FH will be staying there alone (I’ll be staying with my mom). Then he’ll be out by 8:45am the morning of the wedding and I’ll be in at 9 with my girls to get ready
