The night before the wedding was the rehearsal:

I left with my parents and got home (to my parents') about 11:30. I went to sleep without any problems. DH ended up having some cocktails with his parents.

The night of:
Well, our wedding ended about 1 AM! We went back to my parents' house, I took my gown off and left it at my mom's where it has remained!...and then DH and I went to 7-11 to get tacos. He, in his tux! We were so excited, we barely ate at the wedding. Then we went to our new house, where we spent out first night living there....eh hem.....then we got in a cab to head to the airport.

1. Hung out in our suite with family and friends who were in town early. Went to the mall to find a few things for MOH's (including a bra for one ). Drove back to Brooklyn from Garden City with 2 of my MOH's to pick up DH (FH then ) and to stop by my apartment to get fake lashes for my sister that I forgot at home. Oh, and we stopped to pick up fast food on the way back to the hotel.

2. took wrapped gifts and cards to our suite and then went down to the after party in the hotel bar...... then up to our suite

1. Night before the wedding went out to dinner with ILs and DH's friend. Then BIL and MIL hung out with me in my hotel suite while I sat there fixing 3 of my nails. All because I wasted $100 on tips that didn't even last 2 days.

2. The night of the wedding.....came back to the hotel suite and passed the hell out. We were freaking exhausted!!!

The night before my wedding, I hung out with my sister, my mom and my dad. We figured it would be the last time it was just the four of us as a family. My dad made us all sorts of martinis, apple ones, chocolate ones, etc, and we watched movies. I never slept better in my life.


The night OF the wedding, we went back to our hotel suite with a bunch of friends, drank champagne and eventually kicked everyone out around 3am.

1. The night before DH and I went out to dinner as Fiances and then he dropped me off at my parent house where I slept. It was hard not sleeping with him.
2. The night of Dh and I went to Courtyard by Marriot in Ronkonkama. VERY nice. We had a Spa King Suite. The spa tub was wonderful after a busy day.

Well I'm not married yet, but here is our plan:

1. The church rehearsal & dinner is the night before. We plan on having everyone meet at the Church to go over the day of activities, then there is a time gap btw the church and dinner, so we're having everyone come back to our apartment before we head to the restaurant. After dinner, my BM and myself are heading back to my apartment to get sleep. FH is going to stay with his parents and the GM are going to meet FH in the morning at his parent's house all dressed. My parents are going back to the hotel to stay and will meet me at my apartment in the morning after my 6am hair appointment.

2. We have a day wedding, so most of our guests have stated that they will be touring around the island after the wedding reception. So, FH and I will head back to our hotel suite to relax in our jacuzzi, etc

The morning AFTER the wedding, we plan to wake a little early and meet our friends and family who are staying at the same hotel to meet us for breakfast. We're going to leave a note in the OOT bags that this is our plan.

1.The night before we had a dinner with our OOT guests (we didn't do a rehearsal), afterward I stayed at the hotel with my mom.

2. We got married in the morning, so our reception was over by about 4pm. We went back to our house, opened our gifts, took a nap, then went out to a bar (and got a lot of free drinks!).
