Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend....This will be my last question for you as the first BOTW of 2010. I really enjoyed being the BOTW. Thanks Cindy!!!!!
Is your FH quiet / passive when it comes to wedding planning or is he vocal ?
Surprisingly My FH is involved in everything he has been to every single appointment with me, even florist . I'm glad he's there though because he's the one that gets the vendors to come down in price lol I'd definitely get ripped off if it wasn't for him because I don't question anything.

My FH is not too vocal when it comes to wedding planning. I do all the researching of vendors and then he attends all appointments with me (except florist ). I also ask for his input/opinion on everything before making any decisions. One area FH was pretty vocal about was when we were looking for a band. FH is a musician so he noticed a lot of things musically that completely went over my head so he was extremely helpful. I think it's perfect this way. I really enjoy doing all of the researching and then getting FH's input and stamp of approval on everything.

Re: *~*~ QOTD 1/10/10*~*~
when we discuss wedding stuff, he will actively discuss with me what he thinks we should do about certain things or give his opinion on things I have found. But it is usually me who initiates the conversation or comes up with the ideas. He just says whether or not he likes them. I am going to be the one who who actually makes the appointments and I will just tell him when he has to show up. I really don't mind it though because I like do all the planning, but it does get on my nerves when I come to him with a idea I love (like for favors for example) and he will just turn it down but than not contribute a new idea (or he does and it's something completely stupid - and trust it's not just me that thinks it's stupid, anyone would).

FH has strong opinions on certain aspects of wedding planning and on other aspects he is less vocal. We are still in the beginning stages but he has come to appointments with me and I have shared my ideas with him for his opinion and vice versa.

Haha men are funny creatures!!!! My fh is a lil of both...he's very easily persuaded tho. By me and the vendors which is good for me bad with the vendors. He wants to book to fast and I'm more cautious to look elsewhere, which he has admitted is better and worked out in the end. I'd have to say all in all we both have our moments and were a good mixture :)

My FH has his opinions and we discuss every decision but ultimately the choice is up to me. He doesn't really care either way about most things his main concern is the music and I let him lead the way with that.

FH is actually really great when it comes to planning the wedding. He helped me research RH and has come with me to look at all of them. Now he is helping me out with choosing all our vendors. What I love about him is he gives his opinions but allows me to kind of lead the planning. He's there when I need him to be and then takes a stop back when I want to take control. I am one of those girls who has been dreaming up here wedding since she was 10 haha and he understands that which is great!

I couldnt be more happier then what I thought FH was going to be wedding planning. I thought I would have to do half this stuff on my own with him going whatever but he has been vocal and very helpful in everything even down ot the invites.

Since this is my FH's second time around getting married he wanted to have a say in this wedding b/c last time he had none. He's been to every appointment and has actually made them. Which is great bc he's very persuasive and our vendors have brought down prices insanely when he's around. Although sometimes he's a little to involved and its like *** man!

My fiance has times when he wants to be apart of everything, then other times he's like ' I trust your judgement'. He wanted a hand in the picking of the dj, weddding colors, the reception hall, and our decorations for the engagement party.

I'm doing most of the planning. I do ask his opinion on everything though. He usually just tells me yes or no. He's learning quite well!!!!!!! LOL

FH has been starting to get vocal about the wedding, which I greatly appreciate. After all, it is his day too.
He started mentioning what flowers he liked for the centerpieces and what kind of cake and invitations and what not. I was getting nervous because he wasn't saying a word about anything.
