advice on hotel night before wedding
ok, so i was about to send the message to my bridesmaids about sharing a room the nite before the wedding and.... is it bad of me that i think i may want to stay by myself? i'm just thinking that i'll be stressed, anxious, will have been around people all day and will be spending saturday with people all day and, as such, might be better off having down time. what do you think?

I think it depends. If you are alone will you just be sitting there thinking of all the stuff you have to do the next day and worrying? If you are then it might be nice to have some people there to comfort you or take your mind off things. If it was me I'd so stay by myself.

Sounds nice! Relaxing bath, etc. Plus, you need your rest! If that's what you want, I am sur eyour BMs will be fine with it! They can all share their own room!

Re: advice on hotel night before wedding
My FH told me he wants people to stay with me. I didn't really want it. But, this weekend was my shower and bachelorette party and having people staying with me was a nightmare. Everyone is on a different schedule and wants to 'talk'. I wanted to sleep. I am so freaking exhausted right now.I WILL BE ALONE THE NIGHT BEFORE!!!

Re: advice on hotel night before wedding
you might need the downtime by then, and non one can blame you for that! what about just having your MOH, or a sister or close cousin stay w/ you? that's what i was thinking of doing if i don't stay at my moms. at least that way you have someone to calm you down and laugh with!

see, i'm worried about the talking thing and being on different schedules. i LOVE my bm, but the girl will talk till the cows come home - even if you've told her 1,000 times you need to go to bed.
hmmm, maybe i can do adjoining rooms - the girls can sleep in one and i can stay in another so taht i can shut the door when the time comes...

Re: advice on hotel night before wedding
As of right now, I'm staying by myself. I might be too anxious to stay alone the night before though, and I might ask one of my friends to stay with me just so I can have someone to calm me down if necessary. I couldn't do it with an entire bridal party though...that's too much activity for me!

Re: advice on hotel night before wedding
I was going to stay at the hotel with all 4 BM's. Now I realize that I want to stay at my parents, with only MOH staying with me and we'll have different rooms.At least she's there if I need to go in in the middle of the night!

I'm staying in the hotel with my girls the night before. I think the ONLY way that I'll be able to relax is by having my nearest and dearest with me. I just hired a masseuse (hope I spelled it right) last week so that all of the girls can have 20 minute warm stone massages.

Re: advice on hotel night before wedding
Everyone (BP, immediate family, OOT guests) stayed in the hotel the night before the wedding. My BMs were all in the same hallway as me, but I had my own room. They shared rooms with each other. I didn't want to worry about not being able to fall asleep or having to share the bathroom in the morning. It was more relaxing to not share the room. Everyone got their hair done in my room the next morning, but it was nice to have the room all to myself the night before.

Re: advice on hotel night before wedding
my girls stayed over at our apartment with me (i only had 2 girls) DH was at his friends. i couldnt sleep anyway and i was happy to have my best friends here with me. i guess it all depends. if there are a lot of you though you will need more rooms cause if people need to shower you'll be up really earlyif my friends were right down the hall id definately just be in their room anyway. the night before is kind of calming (at least it was for me)
