Where is your bridal party getting ready?

Rachel, on July 27, 2018 at 3:29 PM Posted in Planning 0 10

I'm getting married at a restaurant and it doesn't have a bridal suite where everyone can get ready. I was thinking of everyone getting ready in my hotel suite, but then what do I do with their stuff afterwards if that's where I'm spending my wedding night? I could ask them to be ready before they get to my room, but I wanted to do 'getting ready' pictures.

    Everyone takes their stuff to their rooms or to the venue once it's time to leave. That's pretty much what everyone else does. I didn't even have to ask my dear friends to clean up, it just happened!

    You could do a hotel room. Or does someone have a nice big living room at their house somewhere near by? If theres no bridal party suite ag the venue then you'll probably have to do it at a hotel or someone house. We'll be doing it at the bridal party cabin at my venue

    When would they have time to drop it off at their hotel room? Pretty much right after pictures, we're moving to a location for photos and then on to the venue site.

    I'm anticipating staying at a pricey hotel and I don't expect my 'maids to shell out that much cash for one night (some might, but not all). I'm just trying to figure out the logistics.

    I am actually staying in a room with some of the wedding party the night before. So if some of the others want to come and get ready with us, they can just leave their items in this room because I booked a separate room for me and my Fiance the night of our wedding. I don't really see how you can ask people to come get ready with you without them having a place for all their things. Unless they can just put them in the car or something like that. Or if they need to leave their things in the room and they won't be able to come back because it will be you and your new hubby - maybe they could get it the next day or you could bring it all to them later.

    We had a hotel room. We all got ready there, then gathered all our stuff and left when it was time.

    We stayed in our home the night of the wedding.

    My girls are getting ready with me in the hotel, but my venue also has a bridal suite so they'll be bringing their stuff there during the wedding.

    Does the restaurant have anywhere they can put their stuff during the wedding? Or could they pop in really quickly and grab their stuff afterwards?

    Probably not helpful, since our venue is a hotel. We will be getting in the bridal suite, but all of the wedding party will have their own rooms too. I organized it so my MOH will have the room adjoining our suite, and another bridesmaid will have the room next door

    Typically being in a wedding, means hauling all your stuff all over the place. They'll just have to bring it with them to the venue.
