Re: The Day of... Where are you getting dressed?

  • My stylist is my cousin. I will be doing hair and makeup at home, and put on my dress at the church.

  • I will be at my parents house. I wanted to get dressed at the venue but it was important for my parents to get dressed at their house. I still will take pics in the beautiful bridal suite though. They have a huge mirror.

    [QUOTE]I didn't vote because none of those options fit me. We'll be getting ready at the hotel we'll stay at the night before and on our wedding night. It's very convenient to the church and reception venues and it'll be nice that FI and I can be in the same place.

    This except: we will have make up/hair done at my parent's house, drive downtown (where venue is) to hotel that was rented by FI's dad and step-mom and that's where we will get dressed.  The hotel is about 10 minutes from the venue.  Much better drive than the 30 minute drive from my parent's house.

    I'll be getting dressed twice- first in a shelter house at a nearby state park. We'll be taking pictures there in the early afternoon before the 530pm wedding. Then I'll change back and go hang out at the venue until we have family pictures at 4, when I'll change back into my dress. I'm hoping it goes the way we think it will! Now I just have to figure out when we will take the "getting ready" pictures.

    I wanted to have some pretty pics of me in my dress getting ready at my parents house, but I was also worried about my dress getting wrinkled in the car, so I've decided that I will wear it for a little while at my parents' house, then take it off and put it back on at the church. It's a really simple dress and only takes a minute to change in and out of it! 
  • TBD.  If my aunt can make it I'll get ready in her hotel room which is closer to the venue.  If she can't I'll probably get dressed at my mom's house and drive over.  I'm hoping not at her house though due to the 45 minute drive to the venue.

  • Getting ready at the hotel where we're staying at after the wedding. It's also were the guests are staying so we have scouted out a back exit. MOH will get the car and drive it around so I can sneak out without any of the guests seeing me. Then we will go to a local park with a beautiluk garden to meet FI and BM for first look photos.

  • We will be getting ready at the golf club.  The locker room/dressing room there is large.  We will be coming from the salon so it just makes more sense.
