FH is actually so involved in the wedding planning it's almost weird..lol He wants to be included in everything. Which is good ...i guess He was even upset because I didn't ask his opinion on bridesmaid dresses..lol He said isn't this our wedding? How come you didn't ask me? I think it's actually really cute but I guess I didn't expect it. Is everyone else having the same issue.

Yes! FH wants to be there for every appointment, every little detail! He's like let me drive you to get your make-up and hair done, im like it could take a long time, but he doesn't mind! its very odd actually lol
that last post was meant in response to you...
gotcha, and it is very cute, odd but cute lol, we should be proud of our FH for taking such an interest, even if it is flowers or hair
or bridesmaid dress colors
yes yes, or bridesmaid dress colors lol

he hasnt been involved at all hes just soo not interested or care about any of the details..hes like itll be fun no matter what...not realizing without a hall/dj..etc..its not! and i have to do all the work myself arghhh im really hoping he gets into soon!!!!
yeah i am in the same boat - FH couldn't care less.
Let's see so far he came to the church appointment, two halls, one photographer ( that we didn't choose ), drove to a florist ( that never showed up) and then came to pick out limos.
on the way to the photographer and florist we fought SO bad we almost broke up. . . seriously, he didn't want to go AT ALL and i had to drag him.
the church and hall he didnt mind bc obviously he HAD to be there.
the one thing he liked was going for the limos.
Mine hasnt gone with me to anything yet! like wouldnt even go to the hall..he was like 'i dont care, if you like it and its not a bad price then just book it', and wouldnt come with me the day i wanted to maybe book it so i took his sister and mom instead and i wasnt gonna book cause he still hasnt seen it but they even said hed be useless so i should just book it...then i thought hed want to go for a tasting, but nope 'foods food' according to him..photographers i went by myself and dropped off deposit when i decided on one by myself (he claimed he had alll this grad work to do, and i get home and hes watching tv arghh) keep in mind we live together and are both teachers and work 2mins away from each other so there is NO reason y he cant at least come with me to at least some of the things!

honestly - i gave up. After fighting the whole way to that florist WHO DIDN'T SHOW and then fighting the whole way home - i just thought 'if i was with anyone else this would be fun!' so now i drag my MOH or my sister or my mom with me and have a great time - if i tried to drag him to places every time i wanted to go - i would end up calling off the wedding!

Re: So how interested is FH in Planning the wedding?
FH is very involved and very OPINIONATED! But if he wasn't, I'd probably be upset. Our taste isn't necessarily the same - so we are really learning to compromise...
It took us 3 hours to start our registry and we only scanned 4 or 5 items. We were so exhausted from disagreeing that we just decided to go home! LOL
Then I came home and did it all on line...he hasn't 'approved' everything yet, lol...I'm hoping he's lost interest in that part, lol.

Re: So how interested is FH in Planning the wedding?
Mine is surprisingly VERY interested in planning. I havent had to drag him to any appointments yet, he looks forward to them, and probably has more fun than I do...He is always ready to 'sign the dotted line' no matter what...Ive had to calm him down a few times...bring him back over the ledge

I remember when we first went to Westbury Manor, and he gave me 'the talk' in the car...'Don't get all excited, lets just see what they have to say first, then we'll think about it and come back..' Before they were even FINISHED showing us the place...he's like 'Where do we sign?????' What happened to the speech you just gave ME in the car????!?!?!

So sh'e showing us the albums and he points to the one I liked (thank god) and 'That's It , We HAVE to have that one) ...lol

Re: So how interested is FH in Planning the wedding?
my FH says we like the same things so hes sure he'll like what a I pick out. His only concern...that the planning is going to start consuming my life and that's all we're going to talk/think about until next august!! (probably true, but I don't admit it!!)

Re: So how interested is FH in Planning the wedding?
I'm so lucky!!! FH is pretty involved in everything, he goes with me to all the appointments, he'll give me his opinion we've agreed on everything so far but I think he will let me have anything I want anyway! In the beginning I wasn't sure if he would be interested so I told him that he was in charge of limos and tuxes.. but since he went with me everywhere I will go with him, but I will let him pick out what ever he wants!

Fh hasn't really wanted to go with me to all my appointments so far but he does go. I think he tries to act like he doesn't care but he does because he does offer his opinion and we will come into an agreement. He's even sent in for his passport and is starting to think about the honeymoon.

FH actually asked me the either day why I don't seem to talk about anything other than wedding-relating stuff lately; haha! I know I do but he's so not excited about the planning (one big, non-stop shopping trip to him) that it's all he hears!
He has been good about attending appointments and doing research online but he's not thrilled about the laundry list of things to do. I told him that as soon as we sign our RH contract (next weekend!) that I'll give him a break until after our vacation in July. And then he has to buckle down and help finish making all of the big decisions! I let him decide when we're going to do pre-cana (in January vs. September) because in October we need to have our calendars open for the World Series (Ya Gotta Believe!).
So because we'll be consumed by pre-cana from late January into March, I want to have all of the major planning done by the end of this year and he realizes this.
I think in the end, FH is more excited about actually getting married and being married; all of this planning for a party isn't as significant to him.
He is very opinionated about certain aspects of the planning though!

FH is very into what his tux is going to be and he was into the DJ and limoes and how the dance floor in the RH is. Those are some of the things he was really into.

Re: So how interested is FH in Planning the wedding?
FH is involved and interested a good amount. We have made every decision together so far (RH, band, photo/video). The only thing I did myself so far was my dress. I'll also pick out the BM dresses myself with the help of my BMs (FH couldn't care less what dresses are picked for the BMs lol).
