FH can't find the time to do my honeydo list for the wedding!

I feel u girl! I'm pretty sure its a guy thing cuz my FH hasn't done anything either. And when I ask he thinks im hounding him. But if he did just the couple things I ask him I wouldn't be bothering. I'm sure ur FH will help u but prolly at the last minute unfortunately lol. Ugh men.

Oh tell me about it, I'm in the same situation. Every time I ask it's the same story. yeah yeah yeah yeah I'll do that. And then when I confront him, I just haven't had the time to do that, yet he's got all the time in the world to go for a motorcycle ride with the club, or to go to a midnight show of the "Avengers" with his daughter and her BF and still get up and go to work at 6:30. All I want him to do is re-write the the closing paragraph of our ceremony. Really?? It's not that difficult. Just one or two little sentences need to be re-done - that's it. Simple. But oh no - he's too freaking busy to do it. Now tomorrow morning he's going to a swap meet and says he will be back before I'm even out of bed - he's on the East Coast and I'm on the West Coast.... ummm ok. But that shouldn't be the excuse. And on Monday he'll be in court all day.

So I completely sympathize with ya!!!

Same boat girlfriend, same boat...

Me: Hon, we really need to work on the ceremony

FH: Ok send me the link and we can work on it together

Me: Sent

FH: (As he opens his laptop up) Sh*t, todays the Kentucky Derby

Me: Uh-huh

FH: BRB, I have to go print out the horses so we can call our bets in.

45 minutes later...

Needless to say, we didn't work on the ceremony yesterday. Maybe today. Fingers Crossed

The good news - I picked the horse and won $500 yesterday Yeah!!!!

Same boat. FH is supposed to go for a tux fitting and ask his uncle to be a groomsmen. Yes, we are 3 weeks from the wedding and he hasn't asked him yet. Yes, I'm really getting upset that he won't do it. He has put these 2 things off for weeks. Yesterday I got upset and he said, I'll do it this week. I'll call my uncle when I get home.

Did he? Noo. I'm so tired of harassing him at this point.

I've started coming up with a few different options for things and asking his opinion on them and going with the things we both like. That way he can contribute, I'll pick things he doesn't completely hate, and he doesn't feel too overwhelmed or like I'm nagging him.

I do have the time for this though, closer to crunch time I'd be furious too!

The only place this hasn't worked so far is with the entertainment...he is picky about it but isn't doing much to help. I want to book early before all the good ones are taken, but it's tough to get him focused because it's so far away.

Tell me about it! Am doing everything myself xD

FH has been really helpful, he just can't ever do it when it needs to be done lol. We are 15 days away (AAHHH) and all I want him to do is contact his family & friends that haven't responded. Send out a mass text, it takes a couple minutes. Is it done? NO! Do we need a final guest count so we can figure out our food? YES! Does it need to be done yesterday? Yes lol. We also have not heard from our officiant (I'm starting to get worried) and FH is supposed to be in charge of this. I'm going to be pulling my hair out soon! I hope our FH's get their butts in gear!!

(sigh) Mine will get ready about a minute before the wedding. The funny thing is, he's been great in the planning process and has a lot of input on just about everything. It's just when it comes to his tasks that we have a procrastination problem....

Oh sweetie - you are def not alone! I asked FH to book the entertainment months ago - I just booked the DJ last week. I asked him to have the chain link fence taken down months ago - it's still up. I know he has been super busy at work, but really, a phone call takes a lot of time? Sigh - guess we just have to bite the bullet and do these things ourselves to ensure they get done in time. It's a good thing we love them, right?

Personally, I'm booked for 2 weddings on Sat., 6/16. I also have 3 couples who have already booked me for 2013 weddings.

Michella, tell your FH I said to snap to it! You're planning a Saturday wedding in June -- popular time for weddings no matter where you live!

@ Marie Congrats on the $500.00!

Well it's nice to know I'm not alone here. Oh Nancy T, I sooo know that and I have tried telling him to Snap to it.. he doesn't listen!!

I am just exhausted with things I have done, babysitting my grandbabies and trying to stay on his behind to get the things he needs to do done, just isn't what I want to do. I just want him to do it!!

FH was barely helping with anything... Finally one day I just broke down crying to him about how I feel alone in it.... He knows that I am a take charge type of person, and I like to do things on my own... I replied to him that if I am asking for his help on something either a, I feel that its over my head, or b, that I want him to help me with it... After this lil melt down of mine FH has been very receptive in helping me with anything and everything.. Now, he will even ask me before he jumps on the computer to play his game if there is anything that needs to be done for the wedding... If I give him something its usually completed by the time I get home from work...
