- Wedding: May 2016
Just curious. Who is looking foward to the whole wedding day more? You or him? Equal? I’ve read some things that lead me to believe there are some extremely excited fiance’s, so I figured I’d poll it ^_^

I think I got excited about a lot more of the surface elements of the wedding, but we were equally excited to get married and celebrate.
We are equally excited about the marriage, but he couldn’t give a flying *ahem* if we have a wedding or not. He’s only being accepting and encouraging about it because he knows I want one. 🙂
I am, by far. FH is excited about marrying me, but as far as the details and everything else, he does not care at all. He told me that his sister told him that he should just nod and agree with everything, then show up the day of. Lol. He’s been really good at that so far.
Definitely me. He doesn’t like being the center of attention because he’s fairly shy, so we are probably skipping things like the a big deal first dance and garter toss.
@SouthernGirl: haha that also makes me wonder how many girls want their fiance involved… If mine didn’t care at all, I’d feel totally dejected about planning a wedding. I’d feel like I’m throwing a big party for myself… and then I’d feel gross and selfish and just not want to anymore. lol
I asked my Darling Husband which one of us was more excited and he said he doesn’t know, we were both sooo excited. Then he said maybe I was by a tiny bit because I wanted it to be over after spending all that time on DIY’s. I think he’s right…. he forgot how badly I wanted the honeymoon too though. I needed that vacation!
@yanamari: I WANT him to be involved, but I also know that he doesn’t care about the dress or flowers or the color scheme like I do. I happened to be on his laptop the other day and noticed he’d started on a wedding playlist 🙂 He likes music, so I know that he will be more interested in that when we start deciding on that, and also the food. I don’t expect him to be too enthused yet. But, FH has never really been that enthusiastic about anything. He DID say that he really liked the venue I liked and he said it was “awesome” when we went to look at it and it was his idea to put down a deposit. I know some brides that didn’t want their FH’s involved, but I want mine to be. I just know that right now he doesn’t care about anything I’m doing but I imagine the closer it gets the more he will help. And he always helps if I ask him.
Sometimes we are both excited. Right now I think he is tired just cause he taken on a lot oft task and I kind of checked out for a while. A few months back I felt like him. But most of the time I think we are equally excited and think it will be all worth it in the end.
We are equally excited for the wedding and the marriage! We gush about it to each other like 5 times a day! Lol
@SouthernGirl: haha mine was really into the music too! He was into other stuff, but not as much. He wanted a say in things, though. We’re stuck on a venue, and he had input on colors (if I showed him pictures. He has a horrible imagination for that kinda stuff)
Yeah I don’t understand why girls don’t want their FHs involved at all. It confuses me. lol
He’s the one that wanted a wedding more (personally, I would have just eloped or gone to the courthouse!), but when I tried putting him in charge, he didn’t seem to have any concept of a ‘cheap’ wedding, so I kinda took the reins. Plus I work less hours than he does, so I’ve got more time on my hands.
In some ways, I care more – I’m trying to find ways to have a great wedding without breaking the bank and have spent a lot of time looking into those things (I now hate weddings more than Darwin hated barnacles!). I run everything by fiance, though, to make sure he’s getting the wedding he wanted.
we are equally excited about marrying each other, but i’m probably more excited about the wedding itself, not by much though. he just hates being the center of attention (i do too) and doesn’t like planning as much as i do.
