We were struggling a little before the wedding and I asked if he could put the rest of the venue on his so that we could easily do it. He thought only a small amount was going on it, by I thought he understood the balance would, so I carried on and paid for suits and all the other last bits, only for him to be surprised when I asked him to pay the balance. Would never have managed it otherwise.

Maybe your h2b is just getting a bit nervous maybe with it drawing nearer

Strange thing to say, maybe he doesn't see your enthusiasm the same way we do here.
I guess with the big day getting closer his mind is probably working overtime.

That's what I'm thinking, just nerves. It was just such a strange thing to hear.

I would just let it go over your head. Sounds like he is just stressing pre wedding
