No. But I also wouldn't want to plan it all by myself. I enjoyed planning everything together with him! It was such a unique and wonderful experience, and I'm glad we went through it together.
I voted yes becuase I honestly trust him to make better decisions than myself and to stay true to the real meaning of having a wedding instead of trying to turn it into a materialistic event.
Hells no hahaha he would probably end up with some polkadots suits lol I'm enjoying planning with him right now. He gives me his input, his ideas and we incorporate them.
Hell to the no. I've seen that show and it gives me so much anxiety!! I would like to SEE what he would plan with all of his own ideas, but I'd never want it to be his decision, hahaha.
lol. My FI has said that if he had to plan the wedding the reception would be at Pondarosa... SO an overwhelming NO!
I would. I applied to be on that show, apparently an American version is supposed to be filming, but I wasn't accepted.
No WAY!!!! I am having so much fun planning this, and I will never get to do it again! I will not give up that chance.
It isn't that I don't trust him to make it beautiful because he already knows most of what we/I want, but it'd be too sad for me not to be an integral part of the planning process.
@parasol: I saw that you had done a DIY invitation and then read all the posts regarding your invite fiasco. It sounds like Mr. Parasol really was a champ, at least in that regard!
I said yes - parts of this have been fun, but really, I just want to have the party! So if all I had to do was show up in a pretty dress and get married? Yes, please! Plus I trust my man 100% to make good decisions about the wedding - his involvment has been invaluable as it is, so if he took it on his own, that'd have been fantastic.
I was on the phone with him when I first saw this question and read it to him, and when I told him I'd let him plan the whole thing he said, 'Is that cause you're tired of planning, or because you trust me that much?' A fair mixture of both, I think. :)
Not unless I wanted a Led Zeppelin themed wedding that involved husband and wife tapping the keg instead of cutting the cake.
In all seriousness, a wedding was something I always wanted to plan and had a blast doing. I could never hand off that experience to someone else.
@beachchicbride: But what if your FI actually wants a huge wedding with all the trimmings? Is that what you don't want, and you'd be disappointed? Just saying, it might happen that way. :P
For the record, no, I could never do that, because knowing my luck I'll be with a guy I think I can trust to make the wedding close to how I'd want it and instead chooses to go entirely his own way, and I'd hate the whole thing.
Yes.
I would definitely talk to him about what I absolutely hated first, but for a free wedding? hell yes.
Yes, DH planned a good chunk of our wedding. He was in charge of decorating the reception area, choosing flowers and designing/making centerpieces, half of the food, all the big stuff like setting up the yard and tent, getting coolers and stuff. I planned the ceremony, got the side dishes and desserts, made invitations and programs. His uncle helped a lot, so I would definitely have trusted the two of them to plan the whole thing. They are both perfectionist types so if you give them a job they take it seriously, even if it's kind of girly. And since guys did the decorating it had a really cool rustic look to it. It was also done CHEEEEAP :) But choosing the readings for our wedding was kind of important to me so I would have been a little sad to miss out on that.
No. It's not because I don't trust him, but I know that he'd end up so stressed that he'd give up in tears. He can't even decide what he wants for dinner without stressing out, how would he cope with planning a wedding?
That isn't to say I've excluded him from the process, but I do the all the research and then we talk about it before making a consensual decision (usually what I want but he has veto and I always take him into account i.e. ice cream and popcorn instead of canapes is VERY him).
Nope. If DH would have planned our wedding, we would have gotten married at city hall in jeans and then went out for pizza. Not that there is anything wrong with that... it's just not the wedding I wanted.

...let your groom plan your whole wedding?
I am watching Don't tell the Bride - a tv show where grooms are given £12,000 and 4 weeks to plan the whole wedding - they can't see, speak to or message the bride in any way so she has no say (but they get the wedding paid for them by the show)
