Hey Chuckerboo I totally understand how you're feeling!! When we first got engaged I was all excited to start planning and my FH was so uninterested. I didn't want to make all the important decisions myself so after my mom and a friend and I scouted out venues I dragged my FH to check out a couple that I liked (with the promise of lunch at his fav restuarant lol) and he hated them all except for this one on the lake that he actually got kinda excited about. The only other thing he was slightly interested in was the food...I'm pretty sure the food tasting was the highlight of wedding planning for him. When we picked tuxes he refused to shave and made ugly faces through most of the appointment. *sigh*

So basically I've done everything. I pretty much gave up trying to get him to help except to ok expensive decisions.

The weird thing is though, now that there's only two months left to go he's starting to get interested all of a sudden and last night when I told him I needed his help with a bunch of stuff he was like "no problem, what can I do?" I think alot of guys just can't get that excited about something too far away from the date...it's probably pretty hard for your FH to understand why you're thinking about invites more than a year before the wedding - they just don't understand how much fun wedding planning is!!

I don't really have any great advice, but just wanted to give you hope that he might be more interested when it gets closer to the wedding.
