Rehearsal not the day before

I'm just curious as to how many of you ladies had your rehearsal on a day that wasn't the day before your wedding?

I would have it on Friday (Saturday wedding), but my MOH's boyfriend is the best man in a wedding on Friday. She told me that if she had to she would skip that wedding to be at my rehearsal, but I'm the kind of person who likes to accomodate - and it doesn't really matter to me.

So I was thinking of having it on Thursday, and then on Friday we could just get together to set up and decorate. I guess it could make the week feel less busy if it's spread out rather than crammed.

What do you think?

I have heard of RD being on a Friday thursday...(sorry, long day)...nothing wrong with it.

that would be fun! also giving everyone an extra day of bonding time and maybe even plan a fun event during the day to thank them for coming, like maybe the men go golfing and the bridesmaids have a lunchean or something fun, everyone would get to hang out and relax or help with the finishing touches of things, that is a cute idea

mine isn't the day before mine.  its on a Thursday and my wedding is on a Saturday.

I say do what makes you happy! There isn't a wedding law that says you have to have the RD the night before the wedding!

If you want thursday... have it thursday... want friday... have it friday! It's no biggie!

I think most people do it the day before to the fact it easier to get everyone together since they are most likely in town that night.

We are getting married on a Friday and will either have the rehearsal the Fri before or the Wed before.  I want to be able to have fun and relax without having to worry about getting up to get ready for the wedding in the morning.  My ex-sil got married on a Sunday and had her rehearal the friday before.

We got married on a Sunday. We were going to do our RD on the day before or Friday night. We decided to do it on Saturday, but we were open to doing it on Friday.

I was married on a Sunday and had my RD on the Friday before since the venue had a wedding scheduled for saturday.  It worked out just fine!  Plus, people could run around and get last mintue things taken care of the day before the wedding.

Ours has to be on Thursday before our Saturday wedding...there is something else goin on in the banquet hall/golf course on the Friday....sucky...but what can ya do!!

I had mine on a Friday and my wedding was on a Sunday.  My gf had her rehearsal the weekend before (due to conflicts at the venue).  I don't think there's a rule ... do what works for you guys.
