Let me preface that FH and I have not gone to see any vendors at all. And when we do, it has to be an ALL day thing. ALso, he is never off on weekends.
I'm taking off next Tuesday (boss doesn't know yet tho) to go see 5 different photgs/DJ's. I've narrowed things down since I go to see people by myself too.
So, is it bad to go from noon to like 8:30? I've scheduled in FOOD EATING too!
I'll be fine, it's HIM I'm worried about.
What do you think?

Just don't overwhelm yourself. I saw 3 DJ's in one day & I had enough by the end! Sometimes with too many vendors, you start second guessing yourself...but on the other side, you don't know what is out there unless you look. Is your FH doing the whole day with you...what a good man he is if so

I don't think that is too much. As you leave each one, try to give them some kind of rating so that you can rank them as you go - that may help them from blending together.

That might be too much. If you don't give yourself time in between to reflect on each vendor, you might forget things or mesh together what you've liked/disliked about each. FI does this all the time and I have to tell him, 'no, that was with x hall that we didn't like, remember?' You want to make sure it all sinks in.

I think you will be ok, but remember, as you are driving to the next vendor, write down a pro vs con list this way you don't forget the IMPORTANT things that you liked or disliked...Hopefully by 5PM Frank isn't looking to stay in the car & just send you in

he is very stubborn. he would seriously leave me on the side of the highway and go home!!!!
you know what I think (here comes nasty girl side)... 'you shouldn't had proposed if you didn't want to spend every moment living, breathing, and eating weddings. too bad' I also say often, 'give it up, you gave me a ring, your life is over, do what I say' that doesn't work so much.

That might be too much. I find the whole process of meeting with vendors exhausting. Also you want some time to absorb what they tell you... You don't want all their presentations to start blending together.

LOL thats funny, I remember we were talking about wedding stuff and FH was getting annoyed and he said 'I want my girlfriend back.' And I said 'Thats not going to happen, I'm not your girlfriend anymore, I'm your FIANCE!'
