What do brides do the day before the wedding?

Rehearsal then rehearsal dinner then hopefully getting some sleep LOL Two of my bridesmaids are staying in the hotel room with me. So, we will have lots of time to chat.

Honestly? Nothing fun! FH and I will be buying and arranging flowers. I’m going to a spa a couple days before though.
Just relax with your girls if you have no other tasks to finish.

We are doing a dinner with our family and bridal party and then depending on if we can get in to set up we may do that but my bridal party (my sister’s and our daughter) and my mom and probably my nieces are all going to stay together

We had our rehearsal dinner then I stayed up until 1am or so finishing up some last minute DIYs.
My MOH spent the night with me in the bridal suite and I wish I had stayed alone if I'm being honest. She just stressed me out so much and I was so crabby.

View Quoted Comment I am SO glad you said that though bc I am planning to stay alone in the bridal suite at a hotel, then that’s the same room/suite where I’ll be getting hair and makeup done with the bridesmaids in the morning. Then FH and I will stay their on our wedding night. I was worried if that’s weird or not to stay there alone but my MOH is married and will stay with her husband...plus might be more restful and calm anyway !!

Decorating. Rehearsal and rehearsal dinner

Visiting with some out of town guests, packing, rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, more mingling with guests then bedtime at the hotel.

Well my wedding is tomorrow. This morning I ran errands and got my nails done. This afternoon I made my bouquets and bouts. Now I'm just spending time with my mom relaxing.

View Quoted Comment This is my plan. I was originally going to have my bridesmaid stay with me but she told she is planning on bringing a plus 1 (I think). But she is probably the bridesmaid that stresses me out the most. So I kind of want to stay alone and just relax. Watch tv and try to sleep lol.

FW and I are doing beauty/spa treatments on Friday, Saturday rehearsal lunch then rehearsal and probably some time with family that’s in town then Sunday is our wedding 🥰

Now hubby by and I had greeted a lit of people who arrived in the late afternoon, but we enjoyed dinner alone in a nearby hole in the wall restaurant with juke box speakers at the table. Happy not to be with gatherings g guests or wedding party. We went back to our inn, wedding venue , played skat with the best man and his wife, played with people's new babies, went to bed in our room at about 10 pm. Nice to spend a quiet night together. Til 10 am we went to a place up the street for brunch, saw many guests there but nothing g organizing ized. Since all of us got ready individually in our rooms, just hung out and visited people , glorious fall day until 3:30 when we all went to start to get ready at the same time in our separate spaces to be ready for 5 pm photos. We each were happy not to spend the night before, or much of the day except brunch, in constant company with others. 7 pm gathered for ceremony, left the common area reception at 3 am, so that was a lot of time with other people. So happy we were together and not cooped up getting ready with wedding party any part of the wedding day. Needed the mental space.

We had a rehearsal dinner and then spent an hour with family after. Then husband and I had a little time alone, and then we spent about 30 mins with some friends in our hotel suite. Then another 20ish mins alone. Honestly there were so many people we wanted to see it was truly overwhelming. We felt like we couldn't possibly do it all. But I definitely wouldn't have wanted to be apart from my husband with a girls night or anything... like, we slept apart, but I wanted to be by his side until the minute before bed!

I had a rehearsal dinner and got my nails done. And just did some last minute inventory checking

Rehearsal dinner and just relaxing. No need to do anything crazy before an already long day ahead😴

I suppose the night before my wedding, will just make sure everything is straight with my wedding party, perhaps run a few errands and unwind. Honestly my wedding is going to be the biggest day in my life (besides the birth of our two daughters) but for sure it's going to be a crazy day, so I'd want to just relax with my FH and our children

I ran some errands, had my nails done, went to dinner with my former boss who drove many miles to attend, then stayed alone in a hotel. By my choice.

Since our wedding was a destination wedding, my mom hosted a welcome party at the house she rented and invited everyone that was invited to the wedding (everyone except three guests came). The party was from 6:30 - 9:30 so not too late. I was so glad I got to spend extra time with my guests, especially those who weren't in my bridal party. The house was huge and completely comfortable for 40+ people.

When I got back to the wedding venue (hotel), I spent about 20 minutes with my fiance just kind of talking through the next day and gathering the last few items I needed to bring to my MOH's room. I talked to my MOH for a bit and then went to bed around 10:30. It was hard to sleep but I'm glad I did because I got about 3 hours of sleep on my wedding night before we needed to head to the airport the next morning for our honeymoon.
