The other day my H2B was asking what all the fuss is about when I'm frequently logging on and checking out the forum.
So I showed him a couple of the posts... I said, "look - this one is about bridesmaid dresses..." "well I'm leaving that to you" he replied. "...this one is about table planning..." his reaction: "hmpf - a what?" "...and this one is about what presents to get each other for the wedding day. Look, I've posted on this one..."
His reaction...
"Whaaaa...?? I didn't know THAT?! I'm meant to get you a present?!. Is there a UK Groom I can check???!!!"
LOL! Silly boys - think all they have to do is turn up on the day... Anyone else had a similar experience?

Haha that's so funny!
A UK groom would be a great idea though

CommentAuthorPenguinJ
haha yeh that would be a good idea. i think there would be 3 posts
stag do - where to go what to drink and what stripper to get wedding day - how to get pissed without your new mrs realising wedding night - best ways to get your rocks off
haha
So lucky to be marrying my soulmate on 18/07/20

You can imagine the posts:
"Our venue room carpets & curtains don't match our colour scheme for the wedding"
Replies: "So what?" "...and? But it has a bar, right?" "What's a colour scheme?" "What time is the game on tv tonight?"

yeah i wish there was a site for us men and then it would say gentlemen instead of ladies from the mods as all i ever see is ladies in there posts they dont mention gentlemen....... rant over sorry lol
CommentAuthorPenguinJ
It's cool Reginald! Wedding stuff is generally aimed at women as most men either don't have a clue or don't care lol

Ukbride is for me not him, he's great at being involved but I think his head would exploded if I spent a few hours a day talking weddings to him.

Sorry Reginald Slaps wrist and goes to slap other mod's wrists too!
The boss man has brought the rights for both ukgroom and a ukbaby so they are in the pipelines its just a question of costs and setting them up!

It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.

This has made me giggle xxx
Away with the flutterbys xxx
CommentAuthorJoanna
I think ukgroom is a great idea because our h2b's can't really talk about weddings to their single friends can they because they won't be interested instead of anything bar the stag! Lol They need some other grooms to talk weddings with!

CommentAuthorHayley Elizabeth

haha... totally!!! scatter whats? whats the difference between satin and organza? do i care? lol xx
CommentAuthorReginaldD
satin is a weave that typically has a glossy surface and a dull back Organza A crisp, sheer, lightweight plain weave fabric made of silk, rayon, nylon, or polyester. In silk, the stiffness comes from the natural gum that remains on the fibres ...

CommentAuthorLauraJo87
My h2b calls it bridezilla.com and reckons its a bad influence as I get loads of ideas on there!
Also, I was talking weddings with a friend in front of him and said 'well, someone I know had xyz and it looked lovely'
And h2b turned around and said 'is it a real person or someone from bridezilla.com?'
Silly boy xx

My man joined here! He's very in to it...although hes going out of area again for a while soon. So as I'm not due to deploy at the mo, I'm left doing it all!
And we lived happily ever after!
CommentAuthorAmyK
Yes, mine refers to it as bridezilla.com too... He's now pretty thankful I'm not discussing centre pieces etc with him, that I've got this place for doing that! :-)
