    It looks like mine is going to be about 2 week prior and I'm cool with that (except it's the same weekend I'm running a half marathon!).  My bff/MOH wanted to do it the weekend before, but that just isn't going to happen.

    Mine is about a month and a half before (it's this weekend, woo hoo!). Hopefully you're running the half marathon the day of/before the paryt and not the day after??

    @hilsy85: The bach party is on the 3rd, and I'm running the half on the 5th, so hopefully I'll be ok!

    Mine was in 4 months before my wedding, but mainly because of my oldest sisters due date. She was due 2 months before my wedding and I asked her if she preferred to have the bach part 7 months pregnant or with a newborn at home and she chose pregnant.

    Mine was just about two months before based on the best time to go away for the weekend!

    Mine was almost 3 months before! But we don't live where we're getting married, so my MOH planned it for our trip this summer when we met with all our vendors and met each others' extended family. :)

    @SanDiego Ali-- Is this your first half marathon?  I've run a couple, and I like to spend the days leading up to it spending as much time off my feet as possible.  Can't they wait until you finish your race to do it?

    @AEMalmostK: It's my third.  Plus I think we're only going wine tasting so I don't think it'll be a HUGE issue.

    Mine is this coming weekend and my wedding isn't until late October, so 2.5-ish months before. Everyone's life seems to get busier in September, so this just happened to be the weekend that worked for all of us.

    Mine is the night before the wedding. It should be fine though, my sister is doing for me almost what I did for her. For her, we did ice cream sundaes/floats while watching a chick flick in pjs at the hotel at which we all stayed the night before. My sister is doing both alcoholic and non alcoholic margaritas/pina coladas during a chick flick at the hotel at which we are all staying. There is going to be a definite cut off point for both drinks and staying up--I think the invite said bed time at 10? All I know is that I am super psyched!!!

    Mine was 2 weeks before as well.  It worked out, there was a lot of schedule changes to be made to make it happen.  But I was glad it was when it was.  My hubby's was about a month before.  I would of liked for us to have our on the same weekend but its hard to make that work.

    Mine is the weekend before the wedding... I have too many people coming from out of the country to do it any earlier.

    FI's is the Tuesday before the wedding.  This is what happens when most of his grooms men live out of the country.

    Mine was about 2 months before. One of my BMs had a long way to travel and that was the weekend she could do it. Plus, 1/2 my bridal party are teachers so doing it during the summer made the most sense.

    Mine is three weeks before.  It would have been a month and a half, but then we had a scheduling conflict.
