I have 2 brothers who are both in the wedding party....do they go to my house for pics or my FI house for pics. I definetely want pics with them pre-wedding.

What did everyone else do???

My brother came to my parents' house to take family pictures and then went cross town to DH's parents' house to go to the church with the guys.

This board was perfect timing . . . I was just having this discussion last night with my mother. I think I may give brother an option since where FH will likely be staying the night before, but not positive yet (we live together) is a far drive.

I also may jsut ask my photographer his opinion b/c I don't know realistically how many pics he'll take of the groomsmen at the Church. . . he may do their shots after.

How far away will FH be from your house, is it something they can pull off before they meet up with your FH? If not, make sure you photographer knows and make sure that they take a bunch of pictures of all of you together. I never did that with my photographer and I don't have that many pictures with my brother (good thing that we had a 'special dance' at my wedding - cause we got a couple of pictures out of that.

My FI will be at his house which is only 10 minutes away

I would talk to your photographer and your limo drivers and tell them that you would like your brothers to be in pictures and ask them how you can work it out that they are in the before pictures and still make it to your FH before they leave to go to the church.
