How involve is/was your FH in planning the wedding?
Past or future brides, of course!

He is and was involved in the major decisions. He works too much to be involved in the minutia. Also, he just doesn't care. Not in the bad way, but in the sense that whatever makes me happy is what he wants. But he went to all the vendors with me and picked them with me. Every now and then I can even get him to make a phone call regarding the wedding!

I said major decisions, which I qualify to be: a). To get married b). location (reception hall)
Everything else is just details that he's not concerned with. As rachel said, his view is whatever makes me happy is fine.

Not very into setting up appt or looking into vendors, but always ready and willing to put in his two cents on all my color/flower/vendor ideas. So really he wants to have alot of say without actually doing any work!
Although, I do love him SO much because he goes with me to meet the vendors. I really dont want to make those decisions without him. Originally he said I could do the florist solo cause that is 'girly stuff' but when I told him I was going to plan the meetings for his super busy work week, he got all mopey (and admitted he wants to come too!)

DH was involved in everything I did. It was his wedding too and I wanted us to do the planning together.
The only thing he had no say in was my dress.
He even helped when picking out the BM dress, I asked him which one he liked

Same for us. I made candles for the reception tables and he totally took over the job. And, he loved doing it. He is helping with every single aspect. But, we have the same tastes in things, so there are no arguments.

He is pretty involved! He's not the type to just say 'tell me where/when to show up' it's his wedding too! We went to look at all the vendors together, but he isn't too into all the details about types of flowers, etc. And I'm doing all the research for the HM... he just wants something relaxing, but will go wherever I decide. :)

he goes to all appointments and makes decisions with vendors, he wants to be involved but he is so busy with work and in the end whatever makes me happy he will do...which i think is sweet some small things, like the unity candle, i bought with my mom , i dont think he would really care...

He's involved with the major decisions. Basically I'm doing the research and then presenting him with the top choices!
He'd like to be more involved but our schedules don't go together and he just wants whatever makes me happy. Besides, he had a big wedding once before and he feels this one is really for me!!
But he wishes he could be more involved, I feel bad!

I do all the research, make the appointments, then he comes with me to the appointments and we both make the final decision together.

The only two things DH was Kind of involved with was picking the hall (he went to two halls, I went to 18) and the band (I found the one I wanted, he went to see a showcase and oked them.) Everything else was all me.

He is involved with everything whether I want him to be or not. I told him that he should stay home when it comes to the flowers. That is purely aesthetic and BRIDAL not GROOMAL .
I suppose it is good to have him around when we shopped for bands and photography. He is much better with finance than I am. He analyzes and I go with my gut.

He's already been instructed to 'just show up at the church'

He pretty much wants to show up. He helped choose the hall and the band. That's all he really cared about.

Michael was so involved in the beginning....I actually called him 'Groomzilla'!
Now he still is, but he's less crazy!

VERY INVOLVED!!! I mean, he's so involved, that I asked him if HE wanted to be the one to walk down the isle because he's like a bride!!!
