    My fiance's birthday was yesterday and I think I did pretty well spoiling him!  He hasn't gotten a new acoustic guitar in years so I upgraded him and bought him some yummy cologne.  He also got breakfast (english muffin egg sandwiches), lunch (packed him a great one for work) and dinner (I cooked our own chinese food).  He also got a back rub.  Needless to say he is one happy 34 year old!

    I really wanted to participate in this threat today (thanks for the shout out!), but I have been in a seriously bad mood all day. FI, MOH, BM -- all just pissing me right off. So I guess I am jacking my own thread idea to vent. UGH! Sometimes a bride just wants to hear she is right and for everything to fall into place the way she wants it!

    Ok, vent over.

    That really sucks to hear Mpic.  I hope today gets better for you!

  • So far, my mom has been pretty easygoing with most of my wedding ideas. She wasn't too keen on the Wedding cupcakes idea but she's never seen pictures of any. I was worried she wouldn't like the venue I wanted bc of distance but she's been really cool about it. I'm also very relieved she's not insisting on keeping difficult Korean traditions like inviting hundreds of people I don't know between now and the hour of the wedding! The fiancé has also been surprisingly involved with finding a nice, and not just cheap, venue. I like that he's thinking about what he and his friends would wear or how he imagines a vineyard wedding, etc. I've been stressed about finding the right venue but I'm so glad I'm not doing this alone!
  • LOL he just linked me to his coworker's fiancée's Pinterest

    <div>That's awesome that your FI is so involved. Mine is, as well, and it is a nice surprise. I like that he will actually look at the inspiration photos I send him and give me his honest feedback. I obviously don't expect him to sit for hours looking at wedding websites -- that's my job. :)</div>

    Haha, same here. I won't force him to pick out swatches and compare centerpieces with me. I'm just thrilled he cares!
