The night before - where should my Mog stay?

Hi All,

So the night before I was planning of hiring a lodge. It sleeps a fair amount of people so would be able to accommodate myself, all my bridesmaids (one of which is my H2B sister), MOB and MOG. I thought it’ll be lovely for everybody to share the night together and get ready in the morning in one place.
I was going to have my bridesmaid and MoG share a room within the lodge. Although my H2B believes she should stay with his dad, brother and him when getting ready at home instead, he thinks for the getting ready photos. She isn’t having hair and makeup done the night before so I wouldn’t matter if she wasn’t to stay. But what’s the done this?

I think it's best to just ask her. She may have a preference between being with her son whilst he gets ready or being with the rest of the women.

I would ask her. It sounds as if your OH would like her to be at home with him, and that may be her preference too.

Unfortunately I asked her if she’ll like to stay and when I relayed the conversation back to H2B he was like what?! She’s supposed to be with us. I did say I don’t think there’s a general rule but he’s adamant that’s how it’s supposed to be 🤣. It makes sense even more for me as her and his sister can be the ones who ensure everything is sorted decor wise and a direct link between him and his lot to make sure we don’t bump into each other whilst travelling down!

Sounds like your H2B really wants his Mum to be with him. Although with weddings their is no "done thing" really, I would say that it is not very often that the MOG is with the bride and maids/ MOB getting ready.
In cases when everything is at a venue and they are all staying the night before - both set s of parents I do see the MOG maybe have some hair/makeup done but not often.
It doesn't sound like you have a problem compared to the other way around -- if his Mum was expecting to be with you and you were not planning on that happening

I would suggest that your fiance tell his mother how much he would like her to be there for him on the morning of his weding, and that you are happy for her to drop out of your group so that she can be there. I can't imagine any mother not wanting to be with her son on his wedding morning if she knows that is what he wants, but she may feel awkward about cancelling her agreement to get ready with you unless she is told that it's not a problem.
