Special morning activities?

Is anyone planning anything special the morning or afternoon of their wedding besides hair and makeup?

I am a runner and my FH sometimes runs so we are hosting a shake-out run the morning of our wedding and inviting our guests to join us at a Tim Horton's for a 5k run or 3 km walk. Just for fun but we'll have some prizes afterwards for those who come. Then we'll be heading home for showers and lunch before heading to hair appointments.

We will also be doing a race together on our honeymoon.

We'll have an open house at our house the night before the wedding and a brunch the morning after. Mostly because I have family and friends coming from as far away as Vancouver and I want to make sure we get lots of time with them and that they know we are open and welcoming since everything is pretty relaxed for the wedding.

    That is such an awesome idea, Leah!

    The day before our wedding is when I plan to do the nail appts with the girls and maybe book a fun class of some sort, like waterboard yoga or wine & painting, something unique to friends coming out of town, then we will have our rehersal and BBQ dinner that night. FH and his friends are really big into working out so I'm sure the wedding morning they will head off to the gym and breakfast Smiley tongue I want to have breakfast with the girls before going off to the venue to finalize decorating, then we will enjoy the rest of the morning-afternoon in the venues bridal suite getting ready and hanging out until the ceremony. I imagine we will do brunch with whomever still around the next day at or around the hotel as well Smiley smile

    That's a great idea! I'm still fine tuning this out for the big day as I might have a big breakfast and think of other things to do before the ceremony.

    I think that is awesome because it is not something you hear about everyday! We are doing a brunch the day after the wedding for all of our out of town guests, hosted by my mom and step-dad!

    That is a very cool idea! Such a good way to incorporate your guests in your big day and representing you as a couple. We are having a rehearsal BBQ dinner the night before and probably a brunch for whomever is still around the day after. I think my bridesmaids and I will be going out to breakfast the morning of the wedding and the FH will do something with his groomsmen.
