phone calls

is FH involved in making any phone calls to vendors? what exactly do you see as your FH's role is the whole planning process??

Re: phone calls

FH does whatever I tell him to

Seriously, he makes phone calls, goes to showcases and vendor appointments with me, and whenever we make down payments or installment payment he comes up with 50% of the $$$.

I couldn't be any luckier... he has his opinions (which are ALWAYS the complete opposite of mine!) but we come to some really good compromises and he loves everything wedding related.

Re: phone calls

FH has no role in the wedding planning, its all me. The only thing he showed up to is when I decided on a hall, him and his dad came to the hall to do a walk through and FH was there to sign the contract. He trusts my decisions to book all the vendors and make all decisions that are wedding related. But he is contributing money towards the wedding

Re: phone calls

I drag him along to vendor meetings. He pretends he cares about choices...but I dont think he really does. Our tastes are typically in line with one anothers...so I think he trusts my decisions.

Re: phone calls

FH made a suggestion about using a particular vendor so i told him he needed to be the one that called since he is the one interested in the that vendor. makes sense right??

Re: phone calls

hmmm i think its fair too

Re: phone calls

He is only into it because I make him. Otherwise he wouldn't care.

Re: phone calls

I make all the calls and pick the vendors we are meeting with, he then comes to the meetings and we decide which vendor is for us

Re: phone calls

i make the calls, and tell him who we are going to see

Re: phone calls

FH ended up making the phone call. he is now officially in charge on the DJ.

Re: phone calls

He's made phone calls before. FH is very involved with the wedding process. He even has a say in the BM dresses and color scheme. I love how helpful he is. I really feel like we're planning this wedding together!

Re: phone calls

He is very involved. We discuss everything, he has his ideas and for the most part i like them. At first there were issues, but it's actually gotten a lot better.

Re: phone calls

FH has a very minimal role in the wedding planning. he knows that i have been planning this since i was about 5 years old & just lets me do my thing. when it comes to phones calls my sister (MOH) has taken care of setting up every RH visit & she has gone to everyone with me. i will force him to help with discussions about the band (since that is what he wanted). my FH will be fully in charge of the honeymoon.

Re: phone calls

My FH wanted to check the hall to see what we were putting our money into and he simply loved it also so we booked. He doesnt really want to go to the vendor appts, he just advises me to check with different vendors and don't book with the first one i meet with.

Re: phone calls

My FH is very involved in the wedding. He tried to get me to let him see my dress, and I told him he was nuts! Not happening. But, other than that he has a say in pretty much everything. Though, he tried to slyly get me to change the bridesmaid dress color (I like hunter or emerald green; he likes light green), but that's not happening either.

Re: phone calls

I will ask him his opinions or to help me make decisions. He wanted to be involved in picking the band and RH, other than that, he really doesn't care too mucha bout what I do.....as long as I am not costing him a lot of $$$.
