Who is getting ready with you?

amh04 · January 2012

Has anyone put any thought on who will be getting ready with them?

Obviously the females in the WP (BM and your Mom). I wasn't sure whether or not I should extend an invite to my FMIL and my three FSIL's? They are coming from out of town. I don't want them to feel excluded or left out, but I wasn't really sure if it would be weird to include them. I'm still debating on if I would want them around that morning of. But.. I thought it would be a nice gesture not to mention there is plentyyyyy of room in my house for everyone to get ready at. Still a thought but I just wanted to see who will be getting ready with you the morning of.

Just me and a friend, My mom if she wants and sister if we are talking by then. I thought about inviting others but my guess is they wont want to anyways because they'd have most of the day to hang out in vegas rather than sit in a room and get ready with me

My BMs, mom, FMIL and 2 sisters are all planning to have their hair and makeup done that day. I extended the invite to FSIL but she decided not to. I don't know that it's really necessary to include all those people but my mom and sister asked if they could get theirs done so I said yes. It will take about 4 and 1/2 hours to get everyone ready, though, so everyone but my BMs will probably come and go throughout the afternoon.

It will be the WP, my mom..I did extend an invite to FMIL, but she declined...but that's it...I think you can include who you want..my friend was just married in November and I think the girls in the wedding, got dressed separately and then met at her mom's house for pictures and the ride to the church, so I don't believe there is a "rule"... if that helps

My BMs and I are meeting at a salon to get our hair and makeup done and then getting dressed at the venue. I know my mom is planning to come get her hair done, too... but not sure of her other plans. If FMIL wanted to come, I wouldn't have a problem with it. I'm not sure I've even mentioned the salon to her... maybe I should

I only have 1 BM and then my mom. So it's just us 3 which is why I was considering extending an invite to my FMIL and FSIL's.

I also kind of wanted to see what everyone else was doing

It will be me and my girls in the room. I'm not sure about the moms though. I think my mom will be getting ready at her hotel (she got a diffferent one than us because it was free with her miles) and then she is the one who is setting up the centerpieces and stuff at the venue. Also I think FMIL and her granddaughter (my JrBM & FDIL) will be getting ready in her room.

I think I will be getting a hair stylist that will come to my room so we'll see if other people want to join.

It will be my mom, my 2 BMs, and grandmother. I extended the invite to my FMIL but she said no. One of my aunts might want to get ready with us and if she does I don't mind. I have plenty of room for everyone.
You should invite who ever you want. I don't think there's any rules about that.

Mom, my MOH, my sister, and the photographer. That's probably it!

mrsmustard12 · January 2012

As of now, my 3 BMs, FMIL, Mom, and possibly 2 flowergirls.

My wedding party and my mom. I'm sure FMIL will stop in to see us, her daughter (FSIL) is a bridesmaid. My aunt and my grandma will probably stop in as well. I also want my photographer (cousin) to take photos of us getting ready as well.

we are getting married at our venue-so I will be getting rady there with the 5 girls in my bridal party plus my mom and fmil there.

the guys dont really have to get ready but they have a separate area for them to hang out in before they get dressed. idk what time to have the guys get there but we will figure that out!

ralbro · January 2012

I'm getting ready with my entire bridal party (MOH, 4 BM, and my daughter) and I assume my mom. I asked my FMIL the other night if she'd like to join us and she was thrilled that I asked. :-) I guess that's not something you can just assume if you're not in the wedding party! Lol. But I do want her to be there because I'm really close with her, so I agree that there's no set "rule" about who is there. Just whatever you're comfortable with and makes you happy!

Ditto! I invited FMIL to get hair and make up done then i figured she'll go back to the hotel and get ready with her daughters. So it's a good compromise. I'll already have 6 BMs and a mom/ dad running around in my parents' house... that's enough :)

My 6 bridesmaids (2 sisters and 4 friends) and my mother. We are meeting to go to the salon together, and it is on a beautiful vineyard so we wll have the whole day there with some photos. We will all leave there for the venue together.

My FMIL and FSIL are getting reading separately.

brittandjp · January 2012

We rented a hotel suite just north of my venue. 5 out of my 7 girls are staying the night the night before. The other 2, along with my mom and flower girl, will join us the next morning. I haven't extended the offer to my FMIL yet, although I plan on inviting her. We're getting doing hair, makeup, and a catered lunch there, but bringing everything with us and getting dressed at the venue.
