WP Arrival dilemma

MrsBoss2012

Is it inconsiderate to ask the WP and our parents to arrive on Friday for a Sunday wedding? They are all coming from out of town so that would be 3 nights in a hotel instead of 2 if they just arrive on Saturday. I feel by arriving on Friday we won't be so rushed to get everything done on Saturday (rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, girls pampering, final tux fitting, other running around). FI says they are family and they will come plus we eliminate the possibility of late arrivals and straglers on Saturday. We originally told everyone Friday and let me be clear no one has complained. I just am starting to overthink things and this is one of them.

Thoughts?

I had ppl come Thursday so I don't see anything wrong with Friday...Gives them time to enjoy the weekend in the city as well.

I say Friday as well. My wedding is on a Saturday, and the majority of my BP that live OOT will be here on Thursday (2 days before the wedding). Although, the BM (FI's brother) will be coming in town Friday around noon due to finances, but that was understandable. All he has to do is pick up his tux and the rehearsal is not until 6pm anyway.

I say go for Friday!  My wedding is on a Sunday and we are having the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner on Friday.  I wanted to have Saturday as a day to relax and not have to run around like crazy.  I did make sure that was ok with our OOT BP members before I scheduled anything though.

2 of our groomsmen live in Atlanta and we have already told them we need them here by friday morning. My wedding is on Saturday but I want them here for rehersal and to enjoy the festivities before the day ! They said they will be here Thursday !! Even better...so for a Sunday wedding..I think that's cool !

Ok so it sounds like it is not unreasonable! I talked to my MOH and she was like no one is even complaining about coming on Friday so stop stressing!
