    Seriously.  And I thought I was bad.  He is pickier than me.

    Yes, my husband was a groomzilla. I let him know. He was more prima-donna than me over the following topics:

    photographer
    website
    videographer
    guest list
    cake
    food
    music
    what time we arrived from the church to the reception
    whether people were eating salad during our toasts/speeches
    our first dance
    our welcome bags
    the events of the day before
    the events of the day after
    the rehearsal dinner

    He. Drove. Me. Nuts.

    But...(sigh)...when it actually came, he was just happy. Period. All the little things he was a pain-in-the-arse about up till the day, just kind of faded out.

    For what it's worth, you can look forward to that! I can match any groomzilla story you have (I say that to comfort you, not compete with you), so take heart--if we can make it without me strangling my man, I'm sure you and yours can too!

    oh I have one! i have one!! i love him but who would have thought these men would be so interested in all these details... he says hes not but hes a liar and a cute one at that!  Hes totally opinionated about place card settings and table numbers, invitations... I guess he makes me crazy and laugh all at the same time!

    Mine is graphic designer, and he INSISTS on doing ALL of our paper products ourselves.  I love his design work, and everything is coming out great, but SERIOUSLY? I do not want to assemble 150 STDs, 150 invites, programs, menus, escort cards, favor cards, signs, etc.... Especially because he is a procrastinator.  Love him :)

    @beachbrideamy: Yeah, I'm pretty much losing my mind over here. Every time I mention something that I think will be nice (and after a lot of research), he just shekes his head. I love him, but my gosh! lol.

    I have one too.  I am also planning my bridal shower which my parents are paying for.  He is so many opinions!!  He has NEVER even been to a shower (obviously). 
    He also hasn't been to as many weddings as I have so I know a lot more than him.

    He has told me he didn't like the invitations I wanted, he didn't like the card box I purchased, and he wanted to go with a super expensive videographer.  A majority of the time I want his opinion but sometimes I just want him to sit there a look pretty.  :)
