Did you live with your boyfriend or girlfriend before becoming husbands and wife?
If so how did y’all prepare for the day of the wedding?

    Hi Altesha yes we did live together before we were even engaged. We have been thru alot some highs and lows. Love and Hate so we did breakup off and on and this late time we were broken up 3yrs 1/2yrs. So were then living my life I didn't think about begin married anymore. Here at 49yrs of age I just didnt it was going happen but then one day he told me that he couldn't see his life without me in it. And yes I did missed him but not the drama with talking and taking our time to work on us and relationship. And then in 2020 Nov. He proposed I was shocked and happy it was very emotional. So we are not living together and will not until we get married. Sorry if it was a lot to read,but if its not then it wouldn't be our love story. Only the strong will survive because marriage is a partnership of life together and we are more than ready. As ppl and our family will say #ITSABOUTTIME#🤣🤣thank you

    Is reason y’all didn’t work the first time the reason why y’all decided not to live together until married?

    No we are really just coming in our new relationship and soon to be married.That we want just to start off fresh. Our relationship has gotten better with more communication and talk to each and not at one other. And we also dont speak too many ppl about business and I have learned to treat him as a man and with respect. Plus he spends the night with me here and there and since we did live together before. We are in a different space and New title and my last name will be different so we already know each other's flaws

    Yes we lived together for 2 years before he proposed. We married a year later. We just both felt it was time.

    We have lived together almost 3 years and are getting married in September. The night before the wedding I will be staying at the air bnb that we will stay in together aftee the wedding. Its literally across the street from the venue so walking distance. We each have our own rooms to get ready in at the venue.

    I was so excited to find the air bnb across the street so that neither one of us would have to drive afterwards. Its a cute little place too so all the better. The night before most of my bridal party is crashing there with we so we can all get up and get ready together.

    We’ve been living together for 10 years. We got engaged October 2020 and we’re getting married 7.31.22 (in a few weeks)! It almost doesn’t seem real. But we’re super excited about it.

    My FH and I live together, but we are having a destination wedding. That being said, we will be at a hotel before our wedding in the same room. For the night before our wedding, he will get his own room for multiple reasons, 1. I know he will stay out later with his friends after the wedding rehearsal dinner and I will be up much earlier than him for hair and makeup with the ladies on our wedding day. 2. Gives him his space to get ready with the groomsmen the next day. 3. My sister and I will have a sleepover before the wedding Smiley winking


    Hope that helps! Have a wonderful time planning!

    Yes, we have been living together for 15 years before we actually get married. We are having a destination wedding so we are staying together the night before but we will be going our separate ways the next morning so that I can go hang out with my girls and my mother and go get ready. We probably won’t see each other again until the ceremony.

    I lived with my fiancé for about 10 months before we got engaged! We're doing destination so we'll be staying in the same location for the week prior to the wedding while we get everything finalized and then the night before I'm staying in the suite at the venue with my bridesmaids while he stays at the family airbnb with family and groomsmen. We did this for fun/tradition but also because the ladies will have an earlier start.

    We sort of moved in together before the wedding like maybe a month before because it made prepping for the wedding a lot easier

    We lived together ~6 months before we got engaged, but prior to moving in we had talked about how we both wanted to get married. Our game plan for the big day is that he's going to stay at our place the night before and I'll be in the hotel that night so I don't wake him up with the early start for hair & makeup.
