Where are you getting dressed on your wedding day?

A suite in a hotel, ceremony is 1 minute away, pictures nearby, reception is at another location, but not far. Are you worried about your own logistics?

My apartment, I think. It's like, a five minute drive to the site and it'll be much comfier to me.

Hotel bridal suite where my ceremony and reception are.

Our suite at the hotel. Short walk to first look

Our hotel rooms.

About 7 mins away from ceremony site and 20-25 mins away from reception.

At the venue. We're also having the ceremony and reception (and pictures) at the same venue. It's split into 3-4 different gardens, so we'll have different location for each.

My venue has a bridal suite as well! The ceremony and reception are at the same place, and I'm thinking all pictures will be done on site

Suite at hotel; then taking a party bus to offsite location for first look/BP pix, then back to ceremony and reception which is about 1 minute away from hotel.

Yes. I don't know where we will take our pictures but I know where our ceremony and reception are.

We have a bridal suite at our venue, but it's small and not well lit. We're getting ready about 10-15 mins from the venue where we will also be taking our pictures.

My ceremony and reception are at the same venue. My venue also has a room to use to get ready in which makes it so convenient.

Lippenrieder, it would be hard for us to help you with that wihtout knowing your location! Are there places at your ceremony/reception spaces to take pictures? Or do you have time beforehand to take pictures at an outdoor space somewhere? You could also ask your photographer for suggestions if he/she has experience shooting weddings in your area.

In a suite at our venue. I'm having hair and makeup done in my hotel room and then heading to the venue to get dressed.

At my parents house. Ceremony is literally a street away and like 35 min away from reception

At my parents'. Don't want to change in the church nursery :-(

We are marrying on a 450 acre property overlooking the Smokys. We'll be renting a cabin there to get ready, our ceremony is within walking distance (although I'll take a car to avoid dirtying the dress) and the reception location is steps from the ceremony- like, side by side.

Sadly, I only get access to the bridal prep area two hours before our 5:30 ceremony, and we want to do first look at 4 :-/ We're staying at the property wedding night, but at $400/night could not justify the night before too, check in isn't till 3pm, and they can't guarantee early check in.

So the plan is to have hair and make up done at my parents' (about an hour away from the venue), and I'll get into my dress in the bridal prep room (which is right next to the adjacent ceremony and reception sites - first look will be right outside).

Our venue has a bridal suite. Only $100 to rent for the day. There's a wine tasting room right across the hall - added bonus!

I will be in a suite at our venue the night before. Getting ready there, pictures across the street at a park, & ceremony/reception in adjoining ballrooms. Tried to make it easy on us and our guests. Most are from OOT and I didn't want them to have to drive around a strange city.

Angela, I am not looking for a solution. Just asking people what they are doing to give me ideas.
