    False lol. I ask his input and we compromise about things dealing with the wedding, but I'm the planner.

    True. And it wish it weren’t the case. Lol. But to be fair...he’s helping me stay focused and not become a bridezilla.

    True. Unbelievable but he is going right along with me. Not as enthused I'm sure, lol.

    False!!! He does ask about it and gives his input when I ask but it is overwhelming all of the planning so he just says whatever you want babe lol and I am ok with that.

    False-ish. I usually am the one who brings everything up, but once we start talking about whatever it is I bring up, his ideas usually start spilling out from there.

    False! It’s kind of our dynamic anyways- I’m the planner, he’s happy with whatever. But specifically with the wedding, I wanted to elope and he wanted an actually wedding SO he gets the wedding I get to make all the choices. The only thing he cares about is wearing his work boots that day (he promises to get a new pair for it 🙄) I’ve tried to fight that but if it’s his only wish, I am happy to let it go.

    No, he is NOT. He wants things “X” way, yet won’t help. I get he’s suppppper busy- and stressed- but he can’t have the “I’m outta this, and you picked whatever without me/my day & now I’m going to complain!”.

    I have tried the talk about it on a certain day of the week, I’ve tried once a month, I’ve tried wait till HE brings it up- and we are behind where I am comfortable on in certain things, I’ve tried being a bit@h, I’ve tried bribery- helllllo lingerie, I’ve even tried the cute “So, you’re getting married Quiz book”. And it doesn’t matter, sigh.

    Any advice?

    Definitely false, lol. I've done the bulk of planning, but he does give his input when/where needed

    As of right now, false. I'm sure when the wedding gets closer that he'll decide to be more involved.

    False! She’s away at military training and needs to put her focus there so she can graduate and we can move!
    She wants to be part of the decision making and help as much as she can, but it ended up me filling her in after the fact on a lot of things. She helped with a lot of little things whenever she would visit though.

    True! My fiance is wonderful and he's just as excited as I am. I've made more phone calls and sent more emails, but only because I have a desk job so I can sneak them in while at work. But he does other things and he's incredibly helpful. I stress easily so he's great about trying to make the planning process as easy and fun for me as possible.
