Anyone else have a Groomzilla? Vent

Don't get me wrong I love him dearly but OMG!!  In the last 2 days he has thrown a fit over where I wanted to get the cake & where he is getting the tuxes.  A little back story...
   There are 2 old sisters in our area that make cake.  One has done cakes for my family for years & the other has done cake for Trent's family...their cakes looks & taste the SAME!!  My lady does it for a hobby where his is a business.  I was going to use my cake lady b/c my parents offered to pay for this...nope...he thinks we should use his b/c we asked her for a quote on food but we aren't using her b/c it's not in our budget.  FINE, Idc that much but seriously where was he 2 months ago when I was trying to get this hammered out?!
   Then the tuxes....same deal...been bugging him for months to go get fitted.  Wel he is finally going Saturday.  My mom suggested using someone local instead of Men's Wearhouse b/c it would be easier to return them Sunday.  When I suggested this the other night he said he wanted to use Men's b/c he has a couple OOT groomsmen & they could just meet there...again fine honey whatever...FF to last night..my mom brought some meds down for Zoey (dog)  & I had a coupon for Men's Wearhouse that I was going to give her for my dad to use since they were going to Lincoln today & he was going to order his tux.  Trent see's me giving the coupon to mom & wants to know what it's for so I tell him & he starts going off about how he thought they were using the place closer blah blah blah.  I told him I really didn't care where he got his f-ing tux just let my dad know so he can get one that matches....we are now going with the local place...SERIOUSLY HONEY?!?!
  THEN he finds out how much a hog is going to be (about $350 to feed 350 ppl).  So I asked him to get 2 b/c we are going to have around 500 ppl...we can freeze or sell the rest.  He asks me (in all seriousness) if we can just get 1 & the first 350 people can eat & the others can just have sides....NO!  I made him watch FOB where Steve Martin is saying "is there anyone else we can ask not to eat"
    Yes we have a HUGE wedding planned b/c my family is HUGE but there are A LOT of his friends/family coming too!!
   I want him to have an opinion but somethings it's a little late in the game for it to be changing!!  Where was his opinion 2 months ago?!  Ok I'm done venting for now...anyone else having this issue?!

Hahahaha. That is hilarious. I often feel like Steve Martin in that movie because I try so hard to figure out how to save some money.

Now that that's out of the way, I'm sorry he's driving you crazy. My FI has been pretty great but if he decides he doesn't like something he REALLY dosen't like it. They can definitely be frustrating!

My FI is the same way! I really hate asking sometimes because he waits until the last minute to give a complicated opinion and ALWAYS has to change something! Just hang in there, we'll make it!

Ha sorry. Men can be so frustrating!!

But in all honesty $350 for 350 ppl is a steal! thats $1 a person...yes sides but I am paying depending on entree between $24 and $29 dollars a person. So I doubt you will be racking up that much in sides!

Yes, this! He won't have an opinion when I ask him and then when it's time to sign a contract he'll give me a long winded complicated reason why what I'm goind is wrong so irriatating. He still has no idea what he's wearing.
