Hi! So where are you and your ladies getting ready on the day of the wedding? Most wedding that Ive been apart of, the bride usually gets ready at her own home or a family members. However no one i really no has enough space for more then one person to get ready at. So do my bridesmaids get ready...

Hi! So where are you and your ladies getting ready on the day of the wedding? Most wedding that Ive been apart of, the bride usually gets ready at her own home or a family members. However no one i really no has enough space for more then one person to get ready at. So do my bridesmaids get ready with me? Or do we just get ready separately and meet at the location? Im also thinking about maybe booking a few hotel rooms however im not really sure if thats the most cost effective way. If anyone has any ideas or can share what they did it would be helpful. Thank You!!!!

    We are getting ready in the bridal suite at our venue. We might start getting some of the girls ready at the hotel a couple hours beforehand though just because there are 7 of us and the mothers.

    I got ready in a hotel suite. We got married at a resort and I rented a suite for the weekend. We stayed there the night of the wedding as well. Worked out well to have everyone come to the room for hair and makeup.

    Going to the stylist's for HMU and then to my bridesmen's to dress up the rest of the way.

    FH will get ready at home. Not sure whether his guys will come over or if they'll get ready at their places and meet us.

    First look at home, so we can get some pictures with our pup, then on to the venue!

    My FW and I are getting ready at the house we are getting married at. I will have the upstairs and she will be downstairs. They both have separate entrances so we won't see each other until our first look. Both the hair and MUA will come to us! Yay!

    Our wedding is a DW, so we will be there from Thursday til Sunday. I got a great deal on a suite for us, so we will be getting ready there!

    ETA: It is about a 3 minute walk to the ceremony!

    We all got ready at a hotel. I had 6 girls in my party so two rooms were not too much money when we split it.

    Our venue has a huge bridal suite and I plan to get ready there and will invite all the bridesmaids to be there as well as my mother, and FH's mother if she wants!

    My side got ready at my MIL's condo so we could spread out a bit. it was a short cab ride from the venue.

    ETA another option besides hotel rooms might be to look for an Airbnb apartment or condo that you could prep in? that way you have more room, possibly smaller cost, a fridge for snacks, etc. I would recommend getting ready as a group--that was one of the nicest and most relaxing parts of the wedding day for me and i loved sharing it with my friends and fam.

    We are going to my moms house which is down the street from the church. I live 200 miles away as do 2 of my BMs so they will be staying there with me. I think my MOH and other BM will just come over in the morning since they live close and hot water for showers will be sparse. FH and his family have to travel for the wedding so they are getting ready at the hotel.
