My FI works and lives in NJ, while I live on LI. I was wondering if any of you go meet with vendors, like the band, photographer, videographer, without your FI initially. I feel strange going to meet with vendors without him, but because he really can't get out here during the week, I think I might have to. I think I'd meet with a bunch without him and then narrow it down to my favorites and then have him go.
I think that sounds like your best bet. It would also make him less cranky when he has to spend his free time seeing EVERY vendor!

We only met with the DJ's together. In my case, it was a lot easier that way!!! My Mom came with me to meet the rest.
I did everything with My FH we made all the decisions together
I would definitely do things without my FI. As of right now he has done everything with me, but I wouldn't mind going by myself to meet with vendors. Just make sure you take good notes and write down important things.
I chose our DJ and Photographer, without FH. He works evenings and I work days. So our schedules dont coincide. If we waited for oth of our schedules to match, that would only be on the weekend, and a lot of vendors aren't available then because they are doing weddings.
