i wish we could do it early, but all the BP is from out of town, so we have to do it the night before.

mine is the week before.. and the priest said if someone cant make it its not a big deal they can run through it before the wedding no biggie... i know my brother wont be able to make it and thats pretty much it.. its just a whole heck of a lot less stressful!

I am planning to do mine a week before... FH was in a wedding in July and his rehearsal dinner was a week before as well.... so no, you are not weird!

i don't see why that would be a problem. i am having mine two days before my wedding, hoping we can stay relaxed heading into the wedding day.

I don't think it's weird...

We're having ours the night before. All my BP is in NY too! I'm not changing it though b/c it FORCES me to get my shitt together before then.

I scheduled mine for 2 days before. The week before sounds better than the night be before.

not weird! i was going to have mine the week before but only changed it to 2 days before because i want my sister from FL to be there.. so if you can do it the week before then why not? i say do it

My brother's rehearsal dinner was 3 weeks before the wedding! The date was determined by the church, so there was nothing he could do about it, and to tell you the honest truth it worked out a bit better for us in the end since we had time to do other things right before the wedding.
