Forum advice.......

hubbs91, 18 May, 2010 at 15:17 Posted on Planning 0 30

Hi All... Been following all parts of the forum for months and added a little post here and there. I have wanted to add a few replies on the main "planning" part but often decide Against it. Reason being is I am the groom rather than bride!! My Bride to 2 Nichola has a very busy work load so I have been investigating a lot of the things for the wedding and then discussing them in a weekly "wedding" meeting we have with the family. I am coming across a lot of similar problems to everyone else here but not sure if it is ok for a groom to post advice or ask for advice.... I also actually feel great when you see the great post and photos of everyone's weddings and the forum has become part of daily life for me!! My Bride to 2 Nichola has a very busy work load so I have been investigating a lot of the things for the wedding and then discussing them in a weekly "wedding" meeting we have with the family. I am coming across a lot of similar problems to everyone else here but not sure if it is ok for a groom to post advice or ask for advice.... We are getting married 23/10 this year in Caerphilly Castle in South Wales. One month before we are having a Stags v Hens Ice Hockey match....... Have grooms ever got involved before or do I go back to just lurking???

    Please get involved!! There is no reason why a groom can't post and I'm sure a 'male' opinion will always be welcome.

    Its also so nice to see a groom taking such an active involvement - I'm sure a lot of the hitchers struggle to get their OH excited about the planning part!!

    So welcome, and congrats on the wedding ?

    Hello & WELCOME to Hitched.

    What a great thing the groom being involved like this with the wedding... wish my hubby had taken more of an interest in it all when we got married

    Ask away as much as you want, you will always find one of these super ladies to answer your queries

    Definitely keep posting! Men sometimes have a more pragmatic and often direct way of dealing with things and sometimes on here it can become a bit girly hugs ? and tip toeing round the issue. Welcome!

    Hi and welcome to hitched.

    Definately nice for a "groom" to be here and ask for advice, you might find your mrs2b has some ideas/questions/advice and the girls here are great for that.

    Lovely venue by the way

    nice to have a man's point of view on things, wish mine would hehe

    theres no harm in a man getting involved!! Don't worry about replying! Honest oppinions all the pay please, and a man's point of view might be good!! (esp with all the what to buy the groom/Best Men threads, and the what would he think kind of stuff!)
