Re: What is everyones wedding weekend timeline look like?

I have no idea yet....there are a few things that we know will happen, and what time, but right now I don't even think we can do a rehearsal dinner because all of our OOT guests are arriving on different days, some not until the day of the wedding.

Re: What is everyones wedding weekend timeline look like?

2 days before, picking up dress/tuxedos bringing to hotel.

2 nights before we are doing a parents dinner. Just FH, me and our parents.

Day before I am getting nails done with all the ladies. But I don't have a detailed schedule.

Rehearsal at 6pm

RD at 7:30pm

Day after, brunch from 9-11am then home. We don't leave until 2 days after the wedding for our HM.

It's not very detailed, just a general idea of what I need to do.

Re: What is everyones wedding weekend timeline look like?

I had a Sunday wedding and this is what I did:

Worked up until Tuesday. Ran every errand that I could between Wednesday up through Friday morning.
I rested the rest of Friday and spent time with BMs during the day on Saturday; had the rehearsal dinner on Saturday night.

Re: What is everyones wedding weekend timeline look like?

I dont have a definite timeline but we are going to have the RD the Thurs before the wedding (The wedding is on a saturday). Then I think Friday will be spent with all of my girls and my mom getting mani and pedis. Not too sure about dinner that night though. I don't want to eat anything that'll make me bloated. So, we still have to see about that

Re: What is everyones wedding weekend timeline look like?

Monday- work

Tuesday- last minute errands and go for last dress fitting

Wednesday- my FH wants it to be *our * day before everyone gets into town. We're going to a spa and dinner

Thursday-pick up dress, rehearsal at 7pm, RD at 8:30, karaoke afterward

Friday- Hopefully relax. (HA!) From 7-9pm we are letting our OOT guests know of a bar they can meet and hang out at. It's an informal way for us to say hello to those traveling and give them all a place to see each other. We have more than 1 hotel, so they're everywhere.

Saturday- Hair appt at 8am, doing my own make-up, photog comes at 1pm, limo at 2:10, ceremony at 2:30. Cocktail hour begins at 6.

Sunday- nothing

Monday- 6am flgiht out of JFK to paradise
