Do MC’s usually get ready with the wedding party the morning of the wedding?

    It depends on who your MC is. For our wedding, the MC was a really close friend and he got ready with my husband and the rest of the guys. Up to you really!

    Not mandatory or traditionally, but, if you want them to, go for it. It really depends if you/your FH would want them there.

    I invited our MC to get ready with my side of the bridal party. She's a friend of mine from high school and, if the bridal party was bigger, probably would have asked her to stand with me too.
    If they are getting ready with you or getting their hair/make-up done, I would have them go first in case the venue and/or wedding planner needs them to come early to go over the flow of the day or for whatever reason. It's unlikely, but better safe than sorry. That's my plan for the day.

    I don't think that is standard or traditional or anything. But if your MC is close to you then sure!

    They can get ready with your wedding party if you want them to, but it’s not a must or a tradition. My MC was my uncle so no, he didn’t get ready with us girls 😆

    Not necessarily do they have to be with the wedding party. They can get a picture during the group shots as one with you two alone if chosen at the time.

    You don't have to, its completely your call. Our MC isn't getting ready with us because there are already so many people getting ready in one place as it is. Plus she is one of my FH's aunts and if I ask one of them to get ready with us, I would feel bad if I didn't ask them all.

    I say it depends as well, if they are just the MC and you asked them because they are a friend/ family member then it's a nice gesture to ask if they would like to but by no means should they feel obligated to. If they are the DJ acting as the MC or a hired MC then no.

    We're having 2 MC's, one female friend and one male friend both of whom FH and I are really close friends with, like if we were having a wedding party then they would've been in it kind of thing. So she'll be getting ready with me while the male friend will get ready with FH. It definitely depends who they are to you, like if you hired someone to fill the role then I'd say no, but if it's a family member or close friend then I'd definitely extend the invitation at least

    I think it would depend on who they are and how close you are to that person. They certainly could if you wanted to share that part of your day with them but I also don't think it's necessary if you don't want them there (it can be hectic and crowded enough with just the wedding party!)


    I would also consider if they are getting the same things done that day, like if your mc is female is she getting hair and makeup or will she just be waiting around and hanging out while the rest of the gals get ready? If not maybe invite them for the last bit of getting ready of you want them there for photos especially.

    They can if they are a close friend or family member. But it’s not necessary. I personally have not seen it done but that’s not to say it’s never been done.
