Having Bridesmaids sleep over the night before?

My best friend is sleeping over the night before the wedding...and my guy friend from college is staying at my parents house the nights before the wedding too (he flew from London to Texas, so I didn't want him to get a hotel on top of that, plus, he and my brother are friends). Anyway, I'm looking forward to spending extra time with them.

I am not worried about mine as they will be staying with family. I have been weddings were it was done both ways. One I stayed in a hotel with my parents but stayed at the brides house until about midnight working on wedding stuff. The other time all the BM and Bride stayed at my parents house. It was big enough and she knew that she was always welcome to bring to their house.

Since everyone in my bridal party is local, they all stayed at home and met me at the venue for make up in the morning which worked out perfectly.. I really didn't need to get a hotel room for all the ladies to stay the night plus I wanted some "me" time the day before.. I was relaxing at my parents house and ate good food lol..

My FH is going to be staying at a hotel with his parents and his BM (his BM happens to be his brother). His parents are from the east side of Michigan and our wedding is on the west side. We thought that it would be cool if our last night before being married was spent with our parents and family because from now on, it will always be, Nick and Danielle.

My MOH lives 2.5 hours away and she will be staying with me the night before as well. We will be working on last minute things for the wedding and it makes it nice that we get that Bride/MOH time that is always hard to get because all of your BMs want to help with everything too.

FH's parents, brother, sister in law, and their two young kids are staying at our house the entire weekend of our wedding. I cannot handle this days before our wedding so I am going to a hotel...and FH has decided to come with me. It is cheaper for them, and worth the expense to us. It is the same hotel that we are using for the night before and the night of the wedding so it shouldn't be too inconvenient for us.

Two nights before the wedding, FH and I will share a hotel room...and the silence/relaxation it allows us!! The night before the wedding my brother (man-of-honor) and one of my bridesmaids are spending the night with me in the bridal suite while FH stays in a separate room. The night of the wedding, FH and I will share the bridal suite.

We already have kiddos so FH is taking the boys and a GM to the hotel the night before and myself 2 BM, my step daughter, and my niece are staying here. Our venue does everything linen wise and such for us but I have to do the candy bar and I chose to do the centerpieces as I'm OCD about how I want them. So they will all help me out with that. I think it will be fun to have your girls with you the days before

I will have a houseful the entire week before the wedding and I am excited about it! FH and I have a 3 bedroom house, and will be hosting my Mom (she lives OOT) and my Sister, Bro-in-law and my little 6 month old nephew. Our house will be a complete zoo, but I am so excited I can't wait to see my fam and spend time with them!

@Danielle Z....I just posted on your thread regarding Music Directors for Catholic Churches. I am in West Michigan too....and my FH's name is Nick! I am getting married in Grand Haven, where is your ceremony at? Small world!

I will have my BM and MOH stay with me the night before in the hotel room. It's a suite with multiple beds... so yup we get a bed each!

I am staying at a hotel with my bridal party the night before! It is myself and 3 of my ladies. The original idea was "just for fun" but it will also be less stressful for me as I will know that everyone will arrive on time for make-up/hair the next day as we're all going together

FH will be staying at our house the night before by himself

I will be much like Melissa. We have a 7 bedroom home and we will be hosting a whole bunch of people - too many to even post! Lol! Bring out the air mattresses!

I was thinking about this too! I would like to have my BM's stay in the same hotel room (or adjacent room) so we could hang out the night before and then drink mimosas, decorate everything, and get ready for the wedding together.

I was in a friend's wedding and it was just her and I that stayed in her house the night before- it was relaxing because we just kind of talked before we went to sleep and got up and got ready at her mom's house so we didn't leave it a mess or anything.

Not sure what we're doing for mine but I assume they'll all sleep in their own beds- I may have my sister stay with me wherever I am.

I have 1 bm coming from florida and 1 coming from texas. Both will be staying with me then the night before the wedding we're all staying at the venue, they're sharing a room. If my sister comes up she'll be staying with my parents because we've only seen her once in the last 2 years.

In our circle of friends, it's become the norm to have the groom and his GMs stay in the hotel that we block guest rooms in the night before the wedding and the girls to all stay together at the brides house, so that's my plan!

My MOH is flying in from Ireland just before the wedding. So, to make sure we all had time to hang out and get our "girl" stuff done, we're getting a hotel room for us to stay for the night before the wedding.

I am def thinking about have a girls sleepover the night before the wedding! One because I will need the emotional support and to keep me from driving myself nuts and two because most of my bm have the tendency to be late! This way I can make sure they have their butts in gear ready to go! Lol
