    Traditional! He will be staying with his Best man at the hotel while I stay at my parents house one last time unmarried! We are not doing a first look either so the first time we will see each other is when i walk down the aisle!

    I'm actually not quite sure what we'll be doing. He might say we should spend the night together and then split up the next day to get ready. We'd have to think about it, but this is the more likely thing we'll do.

    Modern. We are sleeping at home in our own bed. We're doing the same thing for the wedding night! No sense in spending extra money on a hotel room when we live 15 minutes from our venue.

    I think traditional for us because we are renewing it means we sleep together always.

    Traditional: we are staying in the same hotel since we are being married in our hometown where we no longer live but I'll be staying with some bridesmaids and he'll be staying with some of his groomsmen!

    I think without. I’m going to go stay the night at my grandma’s house the night before. I think it makes it even more exciting the day of!

    Modern, I couldnt imagine being away from her the night before. We would both end up too nervous to sleep.

    Traditional.

    Going out separate ways after the rehearsal dinner. I will be spending the night with my daughter and my friends and we will be making it a slumber party of sorts with fun masks, cucumber water and movies.

    We were modern. Since it was a destination wedding we stayed in our hotel room together. I couldn't imagine trying to get to sleep without him. We spent the next day separated until the ceremony.

    Traditional. I’m afraid that if I wake up next to him i’m not going to be able to split away to get ready. I am planning on having my MOH send over a small wedding present and letter beforehand. Or maybe talking to each other through the doorway. No sneak peaks until i’m Walking down the aisle though!

    Modern! I wouldn’t want to sleep without my FH the night before one of the most exciting (and possibly stressful) days of our lives.
