Bride & groom staying together night before the wedding?

Crystal, on July 7, 2017 at 11:44 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 1 25

Just wondering if brides believe in not staying or seeing the groom the night before the wedding? I don't see the big deal the night before the wedding! Now the day of the wedding is diff you should then go your separate ways.

    We're spending the night together like usual then I'll get up at the buttcrack of dawn probably and do wedding things. I won't see him again until I walk down the aisle. We live together so it would seem silly to put one of us out.

    I will be spending the night in a separate room. I don't think it's that big of a deal, but I do think it will add to the fun anticipation of the first look

    We stayed together the night before the wedding and got ready together. Like all other traditions, not seeing each other before the wedding is something that you should do if it's meaningful to you, and not if it isn't.

    We're spending the night before our wedding together. We'll go to rehearsal, come back home and probably have a drink or two. We'll have coffee the morning of our wedding and then go our separate ways, next time he'll see me is when I'm walking down the aisle.

    I'm very much a believer in doing what you want for your wedding (if it doesn't make things less convenient for guests)! I dunno what we're gonna do but I could definitely go either way. I think it would be fun to do a slumber party with girlfriends or get pampered before a nice quiet night alone. But I would also follow my man everywhere if I could so would love to spend the night with him before our big day and can't see that spoiling anything. Especially because I naturally sleep pretty terribly and stay up late. But he goes to bed earlier than me and that gets me in bed with the lights out and I fall asleep at reasonable time too. When he's gone, I'm like a teenager, I swear. Like right now! So I'm worried if we split up I'm gonna be real tired for the wedding.

    I'm only spending the night separately from my FH because my moms huge in traditions. I've been with him for 7 years already so it doesn't seem like a big deal to me.

    We are staying together the night before and having breakfast together with everyone. Then we will go our separate ways and see each other again at the first look. Though honestly, our paths might cross paths beforehand because the house where I'm getting ready is also where the alcohol and decorations are being stored and he is in charge of hauling them to the venue. But it's not really a big deal to me.

    My Fiance and I are getting a place together. I originally considered not seeing him the night before but I think we both would feel better about spending the night together. Unsure day of. He won't see me in my dress until I walk down aisle at least. I see no issue

    We are spending the night separately. I will spend the night with my 3 daughters, who are my BMs/MOH, and he will spend the night in a hotel. We will not see each other until I walk down the aisle. I am very excited for that part!

    We're staying together. Our wedding is out of town so I didn't see the point in spending extra money for an extra room for one night. We've lived together for over 3 years so I just don't see the point in staying apart, and like previous posters have mentioned, I actually sleep through the entire night when we sleep together and I know I'll need the rest! Once we part ways in the early morning we won't see each other again until the first look.

    We spent the night before together and it was one of my favorite things about the day. He planned the whole evening and I had no idea- he took us to where we had our first date and we had a lovely time. Slept in the same bed like always and woke up early together. Wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Smiley smile
