    mine im afraid to say you will not see either, he wants the big wedding. He wants the relaxing honeymoon. He wants everything perfect.
    He just refuses to do anything for the wedding except work to get the £2000 that we need together.
    It's nice however to know their are some thats more involved about his wedding.

    Lasies we will need to watch our words now ..... no more moaning about h2b not helping plan etc lol

    Welcome dan! hope you and ur bride find this site helpful. it's good to see a groom wanting to be involved and excited. most just wanna just sit back and ignore all the details, they just nod and say "yh, ok" mine thankfully has told me what he wants to voice opinions on and the rest is up to me :)
    any plans of where u are going on ur honeymoon?

    My h2b is very excited and doing lots to do with the planning. I think thats the way it should be, just as much to do with the groom as the bride and we want our personalities to shine through more than we are worried about traditions. Cant wait for our big day.

    if he was more excited that me, I would be worried!!! as for the decision making, when it comes to table crystals, chair covers, hair and make up trials he glazes over............ and is happy to leave all of that to me.

    He did have input into the band, photographer, venue and the overall colour scheme though. So any big decisions he is happy to be asked his opinion. But he winces everytime he thinks how much this is costing us!!!

    It is my h2b that is the bridezilla Dan. He had me awake until 3am every night for 3 weeks after we got engaged looking at venues online and drives me mad as he wants to talk weddings ALL the time. He is so excited and would love to plan the whole thing himself...he even looks at dresses online for me! ha ha. He did his first wedding fair yesterday by himself as I was too ill to go..how many men would do that? So, you may be rare but there are others out there!!!!

    Getting my H2B t make a decision about the wedding is like pulling teeth lol.... Sponge cake or chocolate cake????? he says 'I dont know'.... 'any' ...... 'you choose' ....... blah blah

    He says he is excited but he wants me to have the day I have dreamt of and is letting me do the planning. Good think is I ask can I have ...... and 9 times out of 10 he says yes.....

    We are just having a few days at the hotel for our honey moon. I will be looking forward to the rest.

    Very encouraging! Its not often I meet a couple where the groom is enthusiastic. Its usually the bride that does all the planning and organising.
    Its good to see men being interested in who they spend the rest of their lives with.

    I can't wait to marry Dee she is my soul mate and my best friend. Dee says I don't get excited but I find it difficult to show it for something that feels so far off. I feel as disappointed than she does that twice we have had to postpone and it is frustrating. Our little man scuppered our first wedding in 2008 but he is so worth it and he is the best thing to happen to us. I know I will get more enthusiastic closer to the time when it feels more real. I am worried that I will be the one that cries during the service, as it will be a culmination of finally getting to that point after all our setbacks.

    I know all of Dee's secrets and I can say that quite confidently. Then again she knows all mine! We share email, phones, laptops and the like. The only secret I am happy for her to keep is her dress at least until the day, whether it is before or during the service. I found it funny on a thread on here she's frustrated with my mother but then who wouldn't be!

    Rightly or wrongly I thought it was something women liked organising by themselves and with other females. I must admit after reading a few of the threads on here, I feel like I have let her down a bit. Off to talk cake or flowers with her.

    My rob has been more excited now that it is all coming together and he can tell people although we def have our moments and i enjoy the time i get to do it on my own or just to think by myself lol!

    I think it is great though that men do enjoy weddings as much as women do. Not all and most men i know are happy not to be as involved in the planning (well mostly the first stages), but when it creeps closer i know a lot of now husbands who were really pleased to be involved and over the moon at marrying their wives! xxx
