Seeing eachother the night before?

We are planning on going out and hanging out with friends and family. We plan on spending the night together, but even if we weren't, I would still want to hang out with him the night before! I think talking and laughing together the night before will help calm any nerves.

I also really like the idea of creating suspense! However, FH and I will be doing all the decorating at the venue along with our families to save some extra money. So, we will be there bright and early the morning of working on table set up!

That’s up to you, but if you are doing a rehearsal and rehearsal dinner the night before, you’ll definitely see him. I will be with FH until after the rehearsal dinner when he will go home and I will go to the hotel, unless he decides to come there as well to hang out with any early guests then go home later

We will be together for the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, but after that it is off to our own separate homes. I honestly think rather than counting down to the wedding "party" we are counting down to the day we don't have to say good night and leave. I can't wait to be under the same roof as him. It has really been a struggle deciding not to live together before the wedding.

That's a good call, I didn't really think about that. I'm going to be so nervous and excited! Why would I want to be away from him during all that lol. I will probably hang out with him that evening and head home early so that we can get some good sleep.

After our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, we will more than likely be spending time with some family/friends who have traveled in (all of my family is coming from another state), but we don't plan on staying up too late.. he'll go to a hotel/Air BnB with his brothers and friends and the ladies will stay with me for a bit to have a "girls evening".

For us, the night before is the rehearsal dinner then a casual bar hangout for guests & family so it would be hard to avoid seeing each other but we are spending the night together the night before.

My FH and I do live together but after the rehearsal we will be going to different places just so I can try and get some sleep and not have to worry about him and the groomsmen

We don’t live together either but our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner is the night before too! He doesn’t live in my state (the state of the wedding as well) so I’m sure he will be staying with his groomsmen that night .

We did live together during our engagement, so this probably won't be helpful to you. We spent Friday getting everything ready and brought things to the venue. After that, we got ready and packed up all of our stuff for the wedding day. We checked in to our hotel. Then we had the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. After that, we had drinks with one of my bridesmaids and her boyfriend, then we went back to our hotel room. We stayed the night together before the wedding and spent part of the morning together. I left his room around 9:30 to go to my mom's room (where we were getting ready). We saw each other again around 2:30 for our first look, and spent basically all of our time together until the ceremony started at 5. I can honestly, say, that even though we spent all that time together, seeing each other during the ceremony was still SO exciting and there was so much anticipation. Nothing was "ruined" because we saw each other beforehand.

We live together and will be staying the night together! Honestly, it would feel too weird to not sleep with him. We have a hard time sleeping apart, and I know it'll be hard to sleep anyways the night before our wedding! In the morning we will get up and probably have breakfast at the hotel together and then will go our separate ways. Then we won't see each other until I walk down the aisle!

We live together so we are each other every day. The night before I will be staying at the inn at our venue and he is going home. The day of the wedding we are all decorating so the only "mystery" will be what we actually look like all dressed up. Lol I have been married before and we did the whole separation thing the night before and day of and it was great. I say do whatever works for you.

We spent the evening before together, but separated at night and slept separately. Then didn’t see each other until down the aisle

Even though it's not the same situation as mine, I still love hearing about everyone else's night and the way they spent it! That sounds really fun and chill, probably something similar I'll want to be doing since the nerves are going to be through the roof already. I'm glad the excitement didn't get ruined, that's probably really hard to do on a wedding day

That sounds so perfect! Seeing him in the morning will probably ease any nerves and make the day feel a little more normal so cute and exciting!

I agree! We loved spending so much time together on our wedding day. It's a day that is supposed to be all about you as a couple, and I feel like most couples hardly even get to see each other. It was the biggest day of our lives and we just wanted to spend it all together! H and I are both mildly anxious people, so it really helped to get to be with each other so much!

We are having our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner the night before so we will be seeing each other then. However, after the dinner we will be going our separate ways. I will be going to my aunts house with my girls and FH will be heading back to our house with his boys. We will not see each other again until I walk down the aisle!

We'll be together for the rehearsal and RD and probably head back to the hotel together, and go to our separate rooms once we get there.
