Although Im Asking Truth Is I Really Dont Want Your Help!

A dear friend of mine is getting married next year on 8.9.10. yes I know super cute and super cliche, but still SUPER CUTE.

Anyway she's having a destination wedding and so she and her fiance went to a bridal expo that was being held in her wedding city last weekend.

She came back SUPER excited, because why??? She found her venue!!!!! Yay! She sent me the link and described everything she saw, what she loved, how great the food was etc, etc, etc. So in my head I've already started making mental plans. What to pack, when I'd need to leave, taking time off from work, making sure The Huzz does the same, saying i'll loose 15 pounds (i have over a year it has to be possible c'mon). I immediately fell in love with the choice and became attached to the idea.

Yesterday she says "I'm back to looking for a wedding venue.... (sigh)."

I was in shock, well "What happened?"

"My Mr. Right decided that he wanted something bigger... something more country. This was Friday's discussion... We spoke last night and now he's in love with a new place."

uhhh excuse me??? I would so be ready to fight. We visited the place, took the tour, began negotiating the contract, including must have menu items and now you say you dont like it?



I guess gone are the days when brides said this is want i want and grooms said "whatever you want hun..."

I must admit The Huzz was very hands on and very opinionated. There were things that i really wanted that i had dreamed of my whole life that he shut down with the quickness. Like a pink wedding. He said and i quote "over my dead body." Since he would have been no good to me dead I compromised and went with red. But I really didn't want to.

On a side note my friend did go on to say "It's actually a pretty nice place. Similar to the first. Just more outsdoorsy... I must admit that I like it too." I guess i have a new place to become attached to now.

But seriously ladies, how much input is too much from your groom? Is there even such a thing as too much??? Do you really care about his opinion??? I know you say it out loud but in your head are you just like "SHUT UP! I LIKE THIS ONE??" Now that your planning is he into it or could care less? Are you ready to strangle him or is he an angel? Or was he or is a a "whateva..." man?

  1. As a single woman, I assume that every bride to be wants their future husband input as long as it coincide to what the bride wants. I know in my heart, I want a yes man, only when it comes to the details of the wedding. But Rachel in this situation it is different, since he wants a bigger venue to invite more people to the wedding. Then you should think, he is really excited and wants the whole world to see him jump the broom. As long as the financial situation doesn’t get out of order, they will have a great wedding.
