Accommodation help please

Hi


I wondered if anyone had any suggestions or have been in my position with words of wisdom.
My wedding is taking place at a venue that doesn’t have onsite accommodation.
My bridesmaids are travelling from different parts of the country so will stay in the area the night before and the night of the wedding. They are all coming with partners.
I live with my partner and our children.
Any suggestions on how we can work this accommodation wise? I just keep going round in circles.
Thank you

    Hi yes there are but what I can’t get my head around is who stays where. Do my bridesmaids get their own place with their partners. Do I stay with my partner and kids the night before. Do I stay with my bridesmaid and their partners. My head hurts thinking about it 🤣🤦‍♀️

    This is the same as me! I'm staying in a hotel the night before and my bridesmaids and their partners are staying in the same hotel, the bridesmaids will come to my room the morning of the wedding and we'll all get ready in my room.

    My FH is staying at our house with some of his groomsmen and the rest of his men are just meeting him there the morning of.

    We are then staying at home the night of the wedding (on our own!)

    Any stuff left over of mine at the hotel will just go into one of my bridesmaids rooms and i'll just pick them up the morning after the wedding xx

    I think the first question you need to ask yourself is whether you want to stay with your partner the night before? If so you could just stay at home. If not then maybe ask your bridesmaids if you can bunk in with them for one night and your partner stays at home with your children.

    We chose to stay at home together the night before because that was a tradition we didn't care about and if I was going to be nervous or stressed out on the day then he is the best person to calm me down.

    I’m not bothered about the being separate the night before tradition either. Did you get ready together in the morning then or did you or he go elsewhere?

    We were getting married in a hotel and had dropped everything in the bridal suite the night before but chose to sleep at home and travel back to the hotel in the morning. I went to a nearby salon with my stepmum to get my hair done and then it was me and my teenage niece doing our makeup together in the bridal suite. We didn't have a bridal party, so other than my niece, it was just the two of us in the room together.

    Would air bnb work for you? Maybe there is a house nearby that can act as a base if it is not near your home.
