    Keeping. We don't stay together now. We will move in together after we get married. Plus my bridesmaids and I will be getting a room to be closer to our venue.

    Eh, I'm apathetic about it. I do wonder which would make for a better night's sleep.

    We can cancel that. We've been sharing the same room for over 3 years, no need to interrupt that now. We can get wake up together, have breakfast together, then get dressed at different locations.

    Cancel. I have no intention to spend any additional time away from my FH.

    1) Because I love him immensely

    2) Being in a LDR means we spend most of our time apart as it is. Why would we want more?

    I like the idea because I think it helps with the anticipation for the day but I also think it’s not a big deal either.

    We will keep this tradition of sleeping apart the night before the wedding.

    Keep! I think it’s romantic and I want our first time seeing each other to be when I walk down the aisle.

    Cancel. But he wanted the mystery and anticipation... so I will stay with my MOH the night before.

    Keep! I’m excited for a slumber party with some of my girls. My MOH lives out of state and I would rather share a hotel room with her than have her sleep on my couch the night before the long (but great) day ahead. Plus my FH likes to sleep in and I usually get up early which wakes him too. I want to give him a chance to rest up and have him time which he values, especially before a stimulating day.

    Originally I was planning on spending the night somewhere else but ultimately decided that there was really no point to this. I sleep so much better next to FH in our bed at home. I plan on getting a good nights sleep before our big day!

    Keep. One of the few things I am really all for when it comes to traditions.

    We are only because I am staying at the venue the night before and he is going home, not to be traditional.

    Cancel. I don’t want to spend any nights apart from my FH, especially the night before one of the biggest days of our lives together.

    On the fence about this one. On one hand, we’re living in different cities right now and don’t get to sleep next to each other too often, why would we want to miss another night? On the other, we could also get rooms with our bridesmaids, which would be nice. One of my friends lives in japan and is coming in for the wedding, her bridesmaid lives in another city as well and I’m not sure if they’ll get to see each other before the wedding. It would also be my fiancées only time for any sort of bachelorette night.

    We've been living together for 6 years, no plans to change that before the wedding.

    Keep you wanna have him anxious to see you and when he does sees you wearing that beautiful amazing dress looking beautiful walking down that aisle which to me it’s the best part of the day the moment your eye meet his eyes!!! It’s worth the night apart!!!

    I would have to say cancel. It seems like a bit of a struggle to stay apart. I don't see the real reason for it.
