I feel like every bride says 'woohoo! i'm married!!! gotta go pack for the honeymoon!'
Our situation was different because we live OOT and had to pack when we came to NY, and then left the morning after our wedding so we packed the night before our wedding day so the bags would be ready. However, it seems like most people wait to pack until after the wedding. What did you do?

Re: Did you pack before or after your wedding?
OMG I was so overwhelmed that I had no time to pack for the HM until after. I wanted to, it just didn't happen.

Re: Did you pack before or after your wedding?
i packed after. But I got married on saturday, may 17th and didnt leave for the HM until Thursday, May 22nd. So since i had a few days after the wedding to get this done, i decided it was better to wait so this way i didnt add more to my to do list before the wedding.

We did half and half but pretty much did the majority the day after the wedding. In the weeks prior to the wedding DH and I tried to have our place completely ready to be lived in so that we could relax when we came home from our HM so that didn't leave much time to be completely packed.

Everything was done before hand. We left in the afternoon after our wedding and was staying at a B & B. We had a week or so off before to get ready for the BIG day so everything was in order.
The worst part of that was thinking ahead to seperate the bag for the wedding wknd only and than the HM bags.
It was ALOT but we were stress free the am after our wedding and just relaxed and looked fwd to the HM

We did not. We were married on Fri and were leaving on Sun. So we packed Sat night. Needless to say we were up late doing it, but it was still fun

We had to pack before b/c we were getting picked up for the airport at 5am the morning after the wedding. We didn't get home from the RH until 1:30 so we packed most of the last-minute things right then, and then we slept for 2 hours!

Re: Did you pack before or after your wedding?
well, we live in VA, so had to pack up everything to get it up to NY for the wedding. We left for the HM from NY the next day so we had to repack our stuff for the HM, leaving what we didn't need at my parent's house. Kind of a nightmare looking back.

I was packed and ready to go about a month before the wedding.
I find it very easy to pack for 'hot' vacations in the winter - I can do it weeks before and be all set to go!

Re: Did you pack before or after your wedding?
I was all packed but DH still had to. We had one day in between our wedding and leaving for the honeymoon though, so he didn't feel rushed but I'm anal about that sort of stuff, like to get it out of the way just in case.

We got married on the 7th and didn't leave for our honeymoon until the 13th so we definitely had time to pack after the wedding...

I did a little before and after. I put all my stuff in the suitcase to get it to our house. And then I had to pack everything correctly the night before we left.

We packed after because 1. we didnt leave for a week and 2. DH wanted to shop and get some new clothes
