I'm with you hun, the earlier you get sorted the clearer in your mind everything will be! I did exactly the same and now everything is sorted and I feel better knowing I won't be having those last minute panics. Don't kill him tho, you are gonna need him at the wedding, lol xxx
JD is taken so I'll settle for being Mrs Marge :o)
CommentAuthorSoon2beMrsHall
Well then tell him to leave me alone right now he is being rude. lol. I just want him to pick what he wants and leave the rest to me. i just want it all done so next year we can concentrate(sp) on the honeymoon planning. I cant buy any of the stuff unil i have saved for it. but at least i know what i want, and where to get it from

This is the man that can burn water and put a pizza in the oven with the plastic still on it. I dont even trust him to make toast dove let alone in the oven

Kiz nearly set fire to my microwave by heating up the chinese whilst it was still in the foil container! He had no idea that metal does not go in a microwave. And he used to live by himself and had a microwave and if you've seen him with a knife trying to cut things...
Got married 11/11/11.
CommentAuthorSoon2beMrsHall
oh dear not good at all. No he is ok cutting things as long as he is only doing that if he starts talk to you then you count the fingers after

Start him small... teach him to make a cuppa!
I can't believe that people can't cook... I think it should be part of compulsory education!

My son can cook, clean, iron, assemble flat pack furniture. All the things you need to survive by yourself. He'll make someone a good wife one day.

CommentAuthorSoon2beMrsHall
He can assemble flat pack furniture but the other 3 hell no. I have only ever seen him use an iron once and he ended up burning his shirt. He cleans when i ''nag'' him to but then it is only a small bit.

You're having a right day aren't you *hugs*
If it's any consolation we've got 290 days to go - we have no reception venue because Ross can't decide what's going to be best, we no longer have a photographer, but that's ok because we've got aaaaaaaaaages to book one *sigh* and he refuses to look at suits.
You're not on your own here!! xxx
It's right what they say
"The course of true love never runs smoothly"
But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D
CommentAuthorSoon2beMrsHall
No he doesnt do the washing up. I work come home from work i clean do the washing, cook, wash the dishes, hover, shopping. Oh and the wedding planning
Oh dear kerry. that is not good. At least i pinned martyn down to a suit last night. I am sorting all the other wedding stuff out

He is if he is in a good mood but if he is tired or hungry and want s to left alone and not have wedding talk he is a night mare to sort things. Like i want to set up a paypal account so i can buy some bits from ebay but he is like no not yet we will lose them or you will change your mind.I wont change my mind as they have the wedding colour in them so i cant change my mind and i wont lose them if i put them in the wedding box in the bedroom under the bed.

im the same and want to start planning thing now! we also have just under 2 years. but dont think men realise the stuff planning a wedding involves. we are going to venue next week to confirm with them what we want. not to worried about his suits just yet. just want the venue ready and waiting. my h2b is a chef so im lucky (when he is home). he does house top to bottom on his days off so i can have a day off as im home all day everyday due to being on maternity leave x

My H2B just came in and sat on the edge of the bed and told me very seriously that he is worried about my "wedding obsession". I showed him how many members on here had longer to go than me and were also making plans, and he was gobsmacked! I don't understand why men don't get it!
At least mine is making my dinner though. Well, ok, picking up a chinese. You should give yours a tin of beans and a diagram, he will figure it out!
CommentAuthorSoon2beMrsHall
LOL tattiesoup. He can just about manage to do takeaway but refusses to ring them. I know i told him there are ladies on here not getting married for 3 -5 years yet and are planning and he was like why it only takes a month. I nearly killed him i told him to get out of my face. He then texted me and said sorry i didnt mean that in a bad way it is just we have to save the money first. I went and told him well that is why i am getting everything sorted now so then we know what we have to save, now help me or dont but i am doing this now

It not that i can show him stuff but all i get is a grunt and a grunt doesnt help me choose things. I have booked him the car he wants to take him to the wedding and he doesnt know as i am not telling him till he pays some sort of interest in the wedding. I told him he couldnt have it as we cant afford it but we can, LOL i am so mean some times

I don't think you can work all brands of man though. Some just don't have it in them. When we were decorating our flat he told me I could have any colour I wanted except pink. So I would show him a blue or yellow and he would say "No, that's too pink." Eventually I worked out that what he means by "pink" is "pastel".
Having established that all pale colours were out, I chose one strong colour for a feature wall in each room and painted all the other walls white. In each room all the accessories are matched to the feature wall. A while ago to test him I asked him randomly what colour the wall in our bedroom is - he didn't know. We've lived here almost a year.
