klassy's wedding music post had me thinking...

 Reminiscent of wedding planning.....

 Did your hubby have a big role in the planning?  Or did he just say "roll with it dear"....?  Yes

Klassy's post about music selection had me remembering my hubby "you-tubing like crazy" to pick out songs for the reception (and some for our 1st dance-HA, glad we came to a comprimise on that one!!).

Re: klassy's wedding music post had me thinking...

  • It depends what it was.  He was involved in the music because he cared about it, but couldn't care less about centerpieces or some of the other details.
  • My H had many opinions, which was nice,  b/c I thought for sure he was going to just roll with it and leave all the decisions up to me.  I like that he had a big part in it.

  • Yeah, definitely depended on what it was.  He really only cared about the food and the music.

    With most other things I'd narrow it down to 3 choices and we'd decide on one together.  99% of the time he liked what I liked.

    Yes, I forgot.  He had a lot of opinions about the food choice!!!   

  • Yeah- like other ladies, Id have to say it depended. He was really involved with all things reception not so much the ceremony. However he did craft our beautiful pew bows

  • My H was really involved as in went to look at all the places, helped make all the invites, talked to me about colors, etc. I wouldn't say that he really cared one way or the other about anything but the food & beer choices, but he actively participated in discussions about all of it.

    Pretty much this.  And like Bella said - I'd narrow down the options and then we'd choose from two or three together.

    the first time my h went to our wedding site was our wedding day. does that give you an idea? LOL. i was SO HAPPY not to have to get his say in the decision-making but i always kept him in mind. by the time we got married i knew what he'd like (or tolerate) and what wouldn't fly.


     

    Me:39 Dx LPD, Fibroid, AMA and all that goes with that. H:37 Dx low motility and low morphology. TTC since 3/12. Clomid 8/12 and 9/12: BFN. 11/12 on a break for Myomectomy sched. 11/26. Resume TTC early 2013.
  • I was really annoyed with how opinionated my husband was about certain things. Not because I wanted all the control but just b/c his idea of a perfect wedding was straight from 1985. Seriously!! We had serious disagreements about the wedding cake. He wanted the multi tiered held up with the plastic pillars, steps with the whole damn wedding party!!!! I use to tease him that he didnt want a wedding cake he wanted a train garden!! We did pick our the music for our entrance into the reception, first dance and his mother son dance (wind beneath my wings Ick!). He was devastated when I told him my wedding dress wasn't all white. Oh I could go on LOL.

  • Its strange how involved FI is. I think the only decision he didn't help with was the flowers and bridesmaids dresses. If he wasn't interested in it he at least pretended to be and gave me opinions.

    Its nice though because if I need something done, I can just give him instructions and he's on it. He decided he was going to do the ceremony programs. He has no idea what to do with them, but its sweet that he wants to do it.

  • H had 'jobs' but wasn't too involved in the actual planning, more in the execution of what I had planned.

  • DH's role was to make sure I didn't go crazy haha. He ended up liking everything, and I consulted him with everything, so it felt like I had his input.
