I drag my FH to some of the major appts but other than that, I am doing a lot of the planning myself. Honestly, if he were involved, we would never get anything done. Some of my friends think it is wierd that I picked out the invites w/out showing him. How much is your FH helping?

Dh helped pick the hall (went to all appts) came to the limo appts, and that was about it. Otherwise, I made all the decisions unless I was unsure, I asked him and he would help me decide

LOL! I'm glad I'm not the only 1. I see some people post on here about their FH's being involved in picking out invites, deciding on flowers, etc...I would go crazy if he even wanted to be a part of that!

I don't drive, so FH has to come with me everywhere. So he's there when I make the decisions and does give me his input. But everything else is up to me.

My DH was in Binghamton and I was on LI so I did basically all of the planning. If he had been here, he would have loved to do more. Before I made any decision, I always ran it past him first.

Re: Extent to which FH is helping w/ planning
FH is very involved. It's nice to decide everything together and I keep stressing that it's OUR day, not just mine, so I want his input and ideas. We made all the decisions (except my dress obv) together. And he has some good ideas!!

He help me with everything and is the one that remind me to stick w/ the budget :P but sometimes I have to remind him to cut cost (e.g DJ and lighting he want the most expensive package)

Re: Extent to which FH is helping w/ planning
FH is actually very good and wants to be involved--so I am happy and because of that I try not to bring up the wedding too much--cause I don't want to get on his nerves and have him start to not want to help

He is very helpful..surprisingly!! He has been involved with every decision and has come up with great ideas.... but he isn't too involved where it is annoying.

Re: Extent to which FH is helping w/ planning
I am the organized/event planner in this relationship. It just comes natural for me. I run all of the ideas over with him and he basically just yes's me to death. The only thing he's not budging on is what I want him to wear on the wedding day. I love when the groom and groomsmen wear the khaki/beige suits and he doesn't like it at all. I might let him have his way wearing black, BUT I can tell you that I will be picking it out....hahahahahahaha. I honestly like that I'm running the show.

He is very helpful. Although he is slow with following up on things...i.e Photographer and officiant, he is really my rock. As a matter of fact, this week I felt as if I was going to have a meltdown and he said that I should really slow it down and not obsess too much about the wedding planning.

Re: Extent to which FH is helping w/ planning
Are you all o.k. with the role you are taking? Do you think you'd have a 10 year engagement and a courthouse marriage were it not for your creative visions and savoir-faire? I'm in the same position, and yet, he is so helpful and involved....but were it not for me, we'd be feverishly shopping for vendors the week before the wedding. It's a gender difference I suppose.....but AAAHHH.

Re: Extent to which FH is helping w/ planning
I did pretty much everything. He came with me to some vendors though, and if I asked him for an idea or to do something specific, he'd usually take care of it. But for the most part, I made the major decisions and did the bulk of the work. That was okay with me because I enjoyed the planning.
