He wasn't happy at first with how much I want to spend on flowers, but he has since told me it's really no big deal. Um, but that's about it. He basically trusts my judgements so far.

Luckily, Adam and I are OK on most things. We've really only disagreed on guest list things, and whether or not his parents' names should be on the invites (My parents and I felt that they weren't paying for anything, and thus shouldn't be on it, and he felt that they ought to be listed - they're paying for the DJ and now they're listed). We're good so far.

First, whether to have a destination wedding or not. NOT. (I won)

Second, whether to get married in church or not. NOT. (he won)

We've both agreed we don't want children at the wedding. NOT. (his sister won )

And finally, whether or not I would be there when he chooses his tux. HELL YEAH! (WE are going to pick them today )

how much to spend on certain things. our ohotography and video came out to a lot of money and he wasnt to thrilled at the fact we spent that much.. now that the wedding is over, I would definately still kepp the video but wouldnt spend so much on pics. I have so many good pics of sub and and I thatother people took that I didnt need too much. dont get me wrong, we got our proofs and love them but it was a lot of money.

other than that we pretty much agreed on everything else!

Well, FH defers to my decisions on some things, but other things we disagree about...

1) The size of the wedding. He had 300 people at his bar mitzvah..I wanted half that at the wedding.. (Although we've compromised on this...)

2) The ceremony. He's Jewish, I'm Catholic. We come ot agreements and then his family complains and then he backs out of them. This is as of yet unresolved. I'm sure you'll all hear more about it.

3) I wanted a Disney Themed wedding (just maybe the ivnites, favors and cake), he thinks it's cheesy. I basically conceded to him on this one, but he's gonna let me sneak some disney in there

4) Everything else, BM colors, flowers, etc...basically it's all my domain. He only wants a say in the hall and the DJ. The photgrapher he's gonna yield to me on because I'm a photographer and he trusts me to be extremely picky!

We have agreed on everything. But I am still waiting for him to finish his darn guest list!!!!!!!! At this point I don't care if his side gets mailed out later.



We have the same problem and I have given up hunting him down. We have also disagreed the bridal party. He doesn't like one of my friends. Also the cost of the entire wedding!!!I wanted to elope because my family is huge. He wanted to get married at home. So now he just has to deal. NO COMPLAINING ALLOWED!!!

He is being such a baby. He actually wants to pick the color of the BM dresses!!!

We disagree way more than I thought we would! Such as:

To have a 'real' wedding or elope. He wanted the wedding, I wanted to elope. You can see how that turned out...

Casual wedding vs. formal wedding. I wanted beach BBQ in white shorts. Volleyball, keg, etc. He wanted tradition. Again, you can see how that turned out....

BP or no BP. He asked 7 guys to be GM before I could even argue the point. So much for that....

Details details details: If I do it, it will be done right. FH doesn't care much for details such as current address, correct name spellings, etc. Doesn't see why I insist on such pettiness.

The thing we argue about the most is:
He just can't see why this is so stressful! He thinks I am being dramatic. 'Planning a wedding is easy' he tells me, 'what are you so stressed about?'. This from the man who has done nothing to plan this wedding except the HM.

AARRGGHHH!!
Whew! I feel better!
