He is a pain in the A$% he doesn't offer any advice and when I bring invites for his opinion he doesn't like anything. I tell him then HE should look and bring it to me for my opinion. I will not be holding my breath. My MOH is paying for them, however I don't want them to be overly expensive because, by the time of the wedding NO ONE knows where the invite is. FH picks one that is like 120 per 100 and he thinks that that is all I explained that u still need the envelopes, etc. I will leave it up to him and I guess I will be sending invites on bounty paper towels. He gets on my nerves sometimes.

U think your FI's are bad with what they ask you.. lol... I was asking mine what he picked for his GM so I can add the exact amount into the budget.. he goes well I dont know what they like so I will just ask them what they want. Im like its not there birthday it dosent work that way!!! Now he inists on asking all of the GM what they want so he can go buy it?!?!?
This is also the person who stuck me with a budget and now said ' why do you have to look at a hundred dj's you like em you book em who cares how expensive they are' ( I looked at 3 djs!!!!) what a drama king lol.
I looked at one hall.. we love it we booked it.. hes gotten away with alot compared to other FI's .. The only vendor I did see alot of was photographers and I did that on my own.. after the first one and I saw how bored and unhelpful he was being I didnt bring him to another one till I was ready to book duet!!

I know!!! My husband did not really help plan the wedding!!! And for him he thinks a wedding can be planned in 30 days!!!

I would ask his opinion and he would say whatever you want!!!

I think about a month b/f the wedding he had all these questions!!! I think he was getting a little concerned b/c he did not know all the details but hey pay attention!!!

For example, just for laughs (I can laugh now) Please note this is just an example of one of many conversations like this 30 days b/f the wedding:

FH: What are we doing for limos?

Me: We have a Rolls for us and a Escalade for the bridal party

FH: I really don't like that Rolls Royce , can we get something else

Me: I'll check ( just to keep the peace)

Me: (next day after I checked): No we can't change it, we will lose our deposit and everything else they have is sold out.

FH: Just use another limo company

Me: NO!

All and all we had a beautiful day!!! He actually thanked me for planning such a beautiful day after it was all set and done!!!!

ETS: He did plan our surpise honeymoon though -- I found out where we were going about 5 hrs. b/f we left for the airport!!! We went to Italy for two weeks!!
