Bridal Suite

Karla, on January 13, 2020 at 12:52 PM Posted in Massachusetts Planning 0 5

Hi all,

I will be getting married in Peabody, MA (September 2020) and my venue unfortunately doesn't have a bridal suite to get ready in. Any suggestions on hotels or other places that have a bridal suite option? Also, is it actually necessary to book a bridal suite or can I have my bridal party come over the day of the wedding to get ready, pictures, etc.

    You don't have to have a suite, you can get ready wherever you have the room and the resources. If by "come over," you mean your own home, keep in mind that if you want getting ready photos, that means having your house neat and tidy the day of the wedding. I know mine looked like a tornado went through the week of my wedding.

    Caytlyn,


    That's my fear especially because I am making centerpieces myself so I'm afraid my house will be a zoo the days leading up to the wedding. I am still considering whether or not I even want to ditch out even more money for a suite so I appreciate the "you don't have to have a suite" comment.

    You definitely don't need a suite if your house has enough room! I agree with Caytlyn that your house would need to be tidier that day, but really that shouldn't be a huge issue! Sometimes cleaning can be a stress reliever, right? (Or just keep telling yourself that LOL) Smiley smile

    I'm not renting a bridal suite for the day of the wedding and will be getting ready at my house. I'm taking the money that I could have spent on a bridal suite and paying to get my house professionally cleaned a couple of days beforehand instead.

    Our venue which was a hotel had a special location for the bride to get ready in. My husband got ready in his best man's hotel room. Looking at the photos, I wish they had a bigger space. His best man was going to get an Airbnb which probably would have worked out better. I included a photo the room me and my girls got ready it. If you are worried about your house being a mess, I would either book a suite or rent an Airbnb.
