Wedding Night

We are staying at the hotel block with everyone else that night, then leave for our honeymoon the next morning.

I totally agree with your mom. Have that experience! You'll be glad you did, I know it I'm also a mom of two little ones, I don't get nearly enough time for just me or just me and FH lol take that time to spend a night at a nice place with FH.

We're probably just going to go back home. I'm sure I'll be exhausted and I'd rather sleep in my own bed since sometimes I have trouble sleeping places that aren't home.

I would do it! We are staying in our blocked hotel Thursday, Friday and Saturday night for our Saturday wedding. We will go home Sunday and leave for our honeymoon Monday. We are spending the night before together too. I just want us to be settled & comfortable in our hotel room (with snacks in case we don't get a chance to eat). We may get a couples massage on Thursday. It just feels more festive!

I was thinking home but SO agrees with your mom so we’re going hotel

View Quoted Comment I didn’t/haven’t set up a hotel block for my guests because majority are local but maybe I should set it up anyway? lol

I do agree, we definitely need the alone time without the kiddos!

We are planning on getting us a hotel room just so we don’t have to stay with our parents since our wedding is in our hometown and not where we currently live. We haven’t made honeymoon plans just yet

View Quoted Comment I’m normally fine sleeping in hotels especially after a long day. But there’s also nothing like home!

We’ll be staying the night in our venue (brunch in a hotel restaurant) the night before and the night of the wedding. The night before I’ll have our toddler and the night of she’ll just be with us lol

View Quoted Comment It does seem more festive to get the hotel and spend that time as newlyweds! It just feels romantic lol plus the hotel will be closer to the venue than our house is so that’s a plus

We are also leaving for our honeymoon on Sunday. So we will stay at the hotel on our wedding night, which is also a Friday.

View Quoted Comment My fiancé is cool with just going home and honestly so am I but since she offered we’re both cool with having a hotel instead too. It seems more weddingish I guess to go to a hotel after, but home is free lol

View Quoted Comment That’s understandable! Definitely wouldn’t want to stay with my parents on wedding night lol

We are staying at the hotel that night, going to the post-wedding breakfast/brunch then leave for our mini-moon that afternoon, just a short ride away.

Take the time! You deserve a little break and being NOT at home will allow you to fully relax without the never ending list of THINGS TO DO going through your head.

Make sure the hotel knows it's your wedding night, they may do something special!

Our wedding is on a Saturday at a hotel so we're staying there the whole weekend! We'll likely be leaving for our honeymoon on Monday.

I'll be sure to let them know! We're planning a post wedding brunch as well

We're just going to be going home. I have 2 sons (15 and 17) and FH has 1 son (8). They'll be with us.
