Alternate to BM Luncheon?

However, I feel like we will have too much to do the day before the wedding. We thought about doing just BMs the week before, but all of us are too far apart (MS, SC, KY), so that won't work. She really wants to do something for me, but I can't think of anything that we would have time for and when everyone would be in town. She lives in the town we are getting married in, but no one else does, myself included. So planning for her won't be an issue, just what to plan. Any ideas, ladies? ______________________________ ~Life is too short to be unhappy~ ...Married my best friend 05-16-09...

I did mani/pedis lunch with my BMs the day before and delegated a ton of stuff to DH and his crew. Everything turned out fine :)

I know if feels like it would just be another obligation now, but I bet by the time it comes around you will be grateful for the downtime. It's actually nice because it forces you to budget time for yourself to relax a little. I think you should do it!

The wedding starts at 10:30 in the morning, so all the finishing touches to the site have to be finished Friday. So all the manis and pedis will also have to be done Friday. As for Thursday, not all the BMs will be in town until late that night, so that's out. I was hoping to find an alternate to doing a luncheon because I know how much she wants to do this for me, and I don't want her to think I'm ungrateful for the offer. I'm certainly not, I just don't want to be stressed attending it when I need to be doing other things. ______________________________ ~Life is too short to be unhappy~ ...Married my best friend 05-16-09...

Even if it only goes on for an hour and has finger food-it's a great way for all the girls to get together and it would be really exciting.
