Morning Brides
Will you be serving any food to your bridal party the morning of? If so, what? (Not too filling; not too messy?)

Re: Morning Brides
I did bagels and fruit (pineapples and strawberry). I also had coffee, orange juice, champagne and water.I was hesitant about bagels, but we started at 9am and needed to be done around 12:30. We needed something to hold us until we got to the hall at 4pm.

Panera delivered to where we were getting ready. We had them cut the bagels and pastries so people could eat smaller amts. We also asked for bagels without seeds so nobody had to worry about seeds in their teeth.

Re: Morning Brides
I'm def. having something for my girls to eat. They can all eat whatever they want before they get dressed. I was just a BM in my bother's wedding and SIL didn't have anything at her house since she was afraid everyone would make a mess. Which I understand but STILL. By the time we got done at the church, all the girls were starving and bitchy. Don't want that to happen at my wedding.

This is going to be me as well. It's so early; I'm going to try and keep it simple. Bagels and maybe some fruit and some cheese for protein. Water, coffee, champagne/mimosas.

My ceremony starts at 11am. Don't have a set time line yet but it'll look something like:
Hair at 5am; make-up at 6:am photographer arriving at 7am. First look at 8am at hotel. Leaving for Watermill at 8:40 to get there by 9 so we can take pictures until 10:00 and then I can hide as guests arrive. Fh can continue to take pics with his family while I'm hiding.
We may move the hair and make-up up by 30 minutes each. I only have 2 girls and only one is getting hair and makeup. The other might get hair too but nothing complicated. My hair stylist is one of my closest friends so she'll already be at the hotel.
The whole bridal party is staying at the hotel the night before so I'm getting platters for my room for me, my girls and my mom and aunts. Then I'll get a platter for FH's room for him and his guys and then another platter for FMIL and FFIL's room for them and FH's siblings and niece and nephews.

My ceremony is also at 11:00. My stylist wanted to do 5:00am also, but that's just too early for me. I'm getting hair and make up, and makeup for 2 of my girls. I think 6:00 should be fine. I expect the photographer at 10. (My photos are basically just wedding party and I live 2 mins from the church.) Not sure about what time to have the other girls come....

I am getting ready at a hotel also. The room I am staying has a kitchenette with a fridge so I will buy everything and bring it with me the day before.
