How soon after the reception are you leaving for your HM? I'm wondering how much time we need. Is there any reason to wait more than one day? Are you leaving in the morning, at night?

We haven't even planned ours yet but I know I want the day after to relax before leaving for HM.

Re: When are you leaving for your HM?
We were married on Friday and left on Sunday. I HIGHLY suggest leaving yourself at least a day to unwind and get ready for your HM. We were happy we did b/c my family was here (brothers and SILs) who live far away so we got to spend an extra day with them. You also bring home soooooo much extra stuff from the ceremony and reception and your house will be a WRECK!!! it gave me a chance to straighten things before we left.
My GF left the morning after and regretted it. Her and her new hubby had a HUGE fight and everything was so rushed.

We're getting married on Saturday and leaving Monday morning after we hit the bank. We want to deposit any checks we get because we will be away for three weeks and don't want to hold anyone up. Plus, I want to spend Sunday with my OOT guests that will be leaving.

we're getting married the 25th of April and leaving the morning of the 27th - I need that day to organize and unwind from the wedding and I also want to be able to spend time with my son before we go away.

Togetherforever- my friend did that we hung out withthem for a while, to help thems tay up, then car service came at liek 4 30 or something. It got a little complicated makignsure there luggage got to the reception from there 2 separate homes, and then fromthereception to the hotel we all went to after. Just make sure you have soemone to help you with all that.
Jimmy's Bride- I'm geting married the same day as you, and we haven't booked yet. Since that's Columbus day weekend, I might wait till the Monday or tTuesday, depending on how long my MOH is staying sine she is from San Diego & I haven't seen her since August 02.
If you're not having any OOT guests, I'd say leave late Sunday or early Monday, to gibe yourself a little time to pack, & double check that you have everything.
