The Morning of Our Big Day
I know that my wedding day is 9 months away but I still think about the morning of our wedding and the entire timeline of how it is all going to happen. I am struggling with a couple details- mainly staying in the Bridal Suite all by myself the night before and the journey to the hair salon.
I am getting my hair done at a hair salon on the south side of Indy called Exclusives Hair Salon and Day Spa. I am sure that some of the other bridemaids will also want to get their hair done at the salon. The salon has a wonderful area upstairs for bridal parties where they are completely separated from all the other clientele. They have several chairs, manicure station, etc. My big issue is that I didn't want everyone to have to drive down there and then back downtown. Plus, let's face it......we will all be drinking a couple of Mimosa's the morning of the wedding! I had also debated on seeing if the hair stylists would come to the Bridal Suite downtown at the Marriott where I will be staying the night before the wedding.
My other issue is that I really don't want to stay in that suite all by myself since we are going down the traditional route of not spending the night together the night before (yes- I am a big baby).
Adrienne, one of my best friends and bridesmaid, helped solve my dilemma!
Solution - I am going to see if all the bridemaids would want to crash in the bridal suite the night before the wedding but only if they want to! I just think it would be so awesome to wake up the day of my wedding with all of my closest friends! Is this selfish of me?!?
Once awake we will all get showered (or shower the night before) and then climb into a limo to head to the hair salon. My mother, mother-in-law, and flowergirl (though I am sure she will want to crash in the bridal suite with us) will join us at this time for the limo ride. We can sip Mimosa's on the way to the hair salon and just have time to spend together. There will be a couple of hair stylists scheduled to work on people's hair. My photographer and videographer will stop by to capture some shots of us getting ready. Once we are done we can head back downtown to the bridal suite to finish getting ready.
What are your plans for getting ready in the morning?

Mmmmm.......I could go for one right now! I am sure work would frown upon that!
This would be nice to transport us to and from the hair salon!

I will be getting ready at my house, and I am having some of my girls stay the night with me the night before. Then we are having the stylists and make-up artists come to the house to make us beautiful! Oh I can't wait!!
