If what you're referring to is the three feasts Nativity, Theophany, and Pascha, where there's the vesperal liturgy and then the feast itself, those are treated as separate days. If you're referring to the modern "vesperal liturgy" that is sometimes done as a replacement for the real thing on the evening before some other major feasts (eg, doing the feast of the nativity of the Theotokos on the evening of September 7th instead of the morning of September 8th), I guess it's being treated like the next day, that is, it's the liturgy for the feast on the 8th - so don't then go to a different parish that's having the service in the morning on the 8th and receive there, too, because you've already communed at the festal liturgy for the 8th, just at an odd hour. However if there was a liturgy in the morning on the 7th, say the 7th is Sunday, you could have done both, I guess.
