The night before: together or apart?

Together. I have problems falling asleep if he isnt there and he tends to over sleep, so I will probably make sure an alarm is set before I leave to get hair and makeup with the girls. Im also going to leave him a surprize a batch of blueberry muffins cooling on the counter just for him when he gets out of bed

We're staying the night apart out of tradition. If you don't want him to see you, could you spend the night elsewhere and come over after he's blindfolded himself (or had someone do it for him)? That would keep up the tradition and be a silly, fun addition to your wedding day.

Apart, I don't want to see him that day until I walk down the aisle. Not to mention the fact that we are getting married at 11am which means I will start getting ready at 6ish...

Ours isn't for tradition -- its for the fun and suspense that will build up to our big day. I am staying the night with my girls and he will be staying the boys in our suites.

no tradition here but for my last night being single it's good to be away

i've my whole life to spend with him after.

We'll most likely be spending the night apart. I'll probably do a suite with the girls or something! Not that I believe in the superstitions, but I want to do all the fun cliche wedding traditions. I am only doing this once.

It's totally up to you, but don't let him guilt you into changing your mind! He's a grown man. He can shave his own face one time!

We're staying apart because we live apart. It's not superstitious, it's fun and a tradition. I don't think it hurts anything either way.

We're staying apart. I'll be in the bridal suite with my bridesmaids at the hotel and he and his GM have a suite as well. We asked for them to be away from each other because he is being really traditional about not wanting to see me AT ALL on the wedding day. He doesn't even want a first look, but I figure I'm getting almost everything that I want, he can have that.

We stayed apart and didn't see each other until the church.

Apart we dnt live together and arent moving in together until after the wedding so of course we will be apart. I have to much to do the day of, if I get up next to him Im not going to want to move

I can help! maybe lol. we got a hotel room close to our location the night before and the rule is: the groom can not see the bride before the wedding. so, once midnight hit's he cant see you! its suppose to be bad luck. so what we did is i got up first. because it would take me longer to get ready. then an alarm when off for him to get up. the hotel has a decent sized walk in closet. when it was time for him to shower i had him sit on the bed eyes closed and i "hid" in the closet. and i announced when i was hidden lol and he went in the bathroom when he closed the door i came out. when he was ready to inspect and touch up his shaving job and do his hair i had him sit on the toilet and close his eyes i did his hair and got the spots he missed when shaving. then when he herd the door shut he could open his eye's again. when it came time to leave i walked out with the car key's got in the back seat and hung a towel from the hanger holder thingy's in the back and put the keys on his se

Together, then in the AM we will go to different rooms to get ready.

Apart!

@Nancy T-- yay to 25 years!!

We decided to stay together just because we don't want to be apart. We will get ready separately, though.

We'll probably be apart. This is one one of the traditions I want to keep.

Definitely apart. We live together, work together, and do everything together. So for us the night apart will make for a much more dramatic entrance when I walk down the aisle. Plus I only get to see my girls like once a year so I am never too old to have a good ol' fashioned slumber party!

Seat. and we went and picked up me sister and brother. when we got to our location my sister and brother walked behind me holding a sheet up tell i got inside out of his view so i could go to the dressing room. he did not like not seeing me but we did talk it made him feel better to at least hear my voice. and before i left to go to the truck i had him close his eyes and i kissed him really good and said it was our last kiss before were married. he really really liked that! hope this helps!

Apart...it adds excitement and anticipation to the day. Plus, I can't wait for him to see me walk down the aisle as his first time seeing me that day.

We stayed apart. He with his family in the hotel room and me with my family at our home.

I'm like Reenski, I realize it doesn't give our marriage any more hope or bad luck than the next thing, but it definitely upped the anticipation to seeing him.

Hmm lots to think about

I think whatever we did we wouldn't go to the ceremony together and would prob do the last bit of getting ready separately. (doing photos after the ceremony)

Apart, just because I think it will be fun to have one last night with the girls and it will make seeing him on our wedding day more special (for us) we live together so we see each other 24/7, sometimes its nice to actually miss each other!
