What if they dream and leave before the men?
That is an interesting idea...the elves (and certain male characters) really, REALLY won't be very happy about that. Some of them who aren't attached to the women (emotionally) will probably have half a mind to let them leave without going after them.

But I can see Bella having fun with this. Maps everywhere in her mind, figuring out where to go.

Another thing to think about: What dream is strong enough to take the women away from the ones they care about (aka Mellondu/Amroth, Ędegard, Nethwador) and wouldn't they tell these dreams to the menfolk anyway? Maybe the men don't believe them? It would have to be a pretty compelling dream to take the women into the wild.

I don't feel strongly with whichever way the women separate from the men. I'll go with whatever you all think would work out best. I do like this new idea, though.
