The night before.....???

[mrlddst]

I think we are going to do separate rooms the night before the wedding.

We are doing separate rooms but we are getting married in the morning so it does make it a little easier.

Just curious, with the wedding in the morning, will your reception immediately follow your ceremony or will your day be divided and the reception held at night? That would leave tons of time for photos!

We will be spending the night apart. The day of the wedding we are planning to not see each other until before the ceremony. This is one tradition we are happy to keep with having a DW.

We haven't decided 100% yet - one on hand we aren't very traditional (thus DW was a perfect fit!) but his parents are traditional and also all about proper ettiquette.  If we decide to go with tradition he will probably stay in his brother's room the night before - that way I'll have our room for getting ready.

We're going to be spending the night before together. I'm so used to sleeping with him that I think sleeping with anyone else will just make me nervous. Our ceremony isn't until 5 pm, so we'll probably spend the morning together with the group as well. We were actually just discussing this last night, and he said he was good either way. He just made me promise not to want to go celibate for three months prior to the wedding like his best friend's wife did, lol.

I agree cinnagirl, I won't get a proper nights rest if I dont get to sleep with my FI. We are so used to sleeping together and anything different would just throw us off.
But I do want to do something to make the wedding night special. Any ideas?

This is exactly what we are doing! I don't want to see him until I'm walking down the aisle!

+1.  We've been living together for 2 years and we own a home together, so what's the point of spending the night before apart?  We're also doing our photographs before the ceremony.  I don't get the whole "no seeing each other before the ceremony" thing, especially if you already live together!

It's just something I've always wanted to do! We also live together but I just would rather not see him on the day of the wedding until I walk down the aisle. I guess I just like the anticipation! I can't wait to see the look on his face when he sees me. To each their own! There's no right or wrong way to plan your special day! )
