Re: (crashing) Day Before craziness?

they day before, all my girls went to get our nails done together
and then we had our rehearsal dinner

and then we all scrambled to the hotel

it was a little crazy and i felt rushed, but it all worked out, i had no choice but to do it that way

just make sure you are super organized leading up to that day, this way the day before all you have to do is show up to wherever you have to be!

Re: (crashing) Day Before craziness?

The day before most of my BP and my DH and I went out for dinner, and hung out in our suite and drank. We all had an awesome time, and it was nice being able to to celebrate our last 'single' day with all of our friends.

We packed the car, and did our errands earlier in the day, so when it came time to leave for the hotel we just jumped in the car and went.

Re: (crashing) Day Before craziness?

We dropped our cars off at the hotel and brought the OOT gift bags there.

Packed our bags for the night of the wedding.

Dropped all of our extras off at the RH.

Had the church rehearsal and dinner.

Re: (crashing) Day Before craziness?

My day before was chaotic.. We had to pick up MIL from the airport drop her off at her and my step daughter at his grandparents hotel.Clean up my parents house for the rehearsal bbq. Go food shopping for the rehearsal bbq...then actually have the rehearsal bbq. Clean up afterwards. Make sure i had everything ready for the next day, gown hung up, bags packed etc.... I didnt wind up falling asleep until like 3am. And after all this chaos, I forgot my vows on the table. :(

Re: (crashing) Day Before craziness?

I made sure I didn't have any running around to do the day before - went for a mani/pedi and a massage and then checked into the hotel and out to dinner with some of my BP.

Re: (crashing) Day Before craziness?

We had the rehearsal dinner 2 days before which I highly recommend. The day before I had no wedding stuff left to do. DH and I went for a jog in Long Beach, I got my mani/pedi and spray tan. He got his haircut. That was it!

i agree - i had my RD a whole week before the wedding and the day before my wedding i did nothing but get a mani/pedi and also go to the florist to approve my centerpieces and bouquets. it was a nice relaxing day with my mom, but if it's not something u can do, what can you do right? it wasn't like i was putting together church programs or anything, i just liked having the day to relax. maybe you can get your girls as part of your party to do the mani/pedi thing so you are able to do that and then a nice lunch before dinner - not too much drinking - just a few glasses of champagne or whatever - a nice sendoff!

good luck!

The day before I spent the day at the wineries with my sister, mom and a couple of my female family members from out of town. Then I went to dinner with my family and all of my BM's slept over and a little slumber party.

The thursday before I got a massage, did some last minute prepartions and had my rehearsal dinner.

day before I worked , got my nails done with some of my girls, did rehearsal, then dinner then home with some of my girls. The craziest part of my day before was the heavy rain storms other.
