Anyone else having a bachelorette party the night before their wedding?

That would make me really nervous!

Mine was a Friday before my Sunday wedding. We went out to lunch, to the beach and then back to a friend's house for drinks and a movie. Unfortunately everyone had to be up early the next day, but I really enjoyed it! One of my friends got married last fall and the whole BP decided to go out drinking after the RD and it got really messy and super late. Wedding was planned for 8 am the next morning and most of the girls didn't get back until 2 AM when we all had to be up at 6 to get ready. I went back at midnight because I was exhausted and sick. I don't think you can tell in pictures, but I definitely wouldn't have planned it that way.

Mine is a couple weeks in advance. Wayyyy too much could go wrong the night before if alcohol is involved.

As long as you guys aren't going to be out drinking all night, you will probably be fine. I want to make sure I am in bed early the night before our wedding so I look and feel rested and refreshed.

Mine was the Thursday night before my Saturday wedding, because everyone was coming in from out of town (including me). I didn't drink too much, but I ended up getting mild food poisoning, so I was extra glad we didn't do it the night before!

Mine is 3 weeks before our wedding & his is 4 weeks before. If you try to keep the night simple & finish up early you should be ok. Take some tylenol before bed (for sure)

I honestly would not drink the night before, at all. It could dry out your skin and even if you don't get wasted, you could still have that hungover feeling from staying up late. Then, the makeup will have to go into overtime instead of it being a lovely addition to your already pretty face. I used to be a big drinker and trust me, it won't go well the next day. If it has to be for that day, something to consider would be a girls' day to go paint or do some fun activity and then, go out to dinner somewhere. Personally, that's what I'm planning on doing when the time comes. Good luck and I hope you will figure out a plan that works for all!

A friend had his bachelor party 2 days before for a similar reason, it ended up being fine because everyone was pretty responsible and not a big drinker. If you think any of your VIPs will end up going overboard I wouldn't do it the night before. As easy as it is to think "everyone knows they need to be up early/look good in pictures/smile all day, sometimes that doesn't happen even if everyone has the best intentions.

If your parties are more activity based than go out drinking based this should be totally fine! Go to a paint nite, an escape room, a nice dinner, something that's not all centered around drinking and I think everyone will be fine the next day.

DH did - I couldn't talk him out of it, mainly because several of his close friends flew in that day. I was worried, but the best man thought it was a terrible idea too, so kept it under control - hosted drinks and Cards against Humanity at his place, which made me feel a lot better about it. In the end it was fine, luckily!

I did for my first wedding. It was fine. Everyone was adult enough to take precautions and use hangover remedies if needed. Our ceremony was at 2 pm. Everything went fine. Relax and enjoy it.

Is two days before an option? I would hate for anyone to be hungover!

We are having ours either that Wednesday or Thursday before the wedding. I don't want to go out the night before because I know myself, my friends and family, when we all get together, no ma'am, and we will all be hung over the next day looking cray cray. Just being honest. Unless you know for sure everyone is having one drink. I would catch them when everyone comes in early for the wedding, if they do.

Mine will be the day before rehearsal, so 2 days before the wedding since everyone is OOT. Fiance is doing his much earlier though. U gotta do what u gotta do!

2 out of 4 of my bm's are out of town so we will get together the night before but nothing to crazy or late. We are actually trying to go a Bruno Mars concert.

Mine will be 7/29 the week before i move out of state to be with FH all of his friends are out of state, so his will be the night before the wedding... I am dreading it but also so excited for him. His job is really demanding. When he can have some fun I'm all for it..he'll be with all of his childhood friends which he hasn't physically seen in at least 6yrs. I know they will party hard. They just all better be upright and sober by 3:30 the next day. Im sure me and the girls will find something to do the night before as well. I just won't go as hard as FH bc i would have already had my bachelorette party.

We are in the same boat but, no bridal party. We are keeping it really low key- nails, nice dinner, cocktails (at 8pm). I plan to be in bed by 10pm.

As long as y'all control yourselves and you still get plenty of rest I don't see the problem

Nope my wedding is July 15 and my party was last night July 1

I don't think this is a good idea. Even if you aren't drinking you will want to stay up late with your friends you don't see often. I am so hateful when I'm super sleepy and sure don't want to feel like that on my wedding day.

Heck no I would never do this.
