Poll: FI's wedding requests

I stole this from the Central/North Jersey Board and thought it would be fun to post on here. "What are some requests - either serious or silly or just crazy - that your FI has made for the wedding? (or that your DH/DW had made?)" My FI so far has requested....-Classic car as our transportation-Picky about wedding cake designs-A lot of do not play list songs!!!-Having his brother (BM) who is a graphic designer, design our ice sculpture

    Pretty much the ONLY thing my H wanted out of the details of the day was to ride with our entire wedding party in the limo after the ceremony, rather than separating ourselves. I didn't have a preference so he got his wish! :)

    -taking 2 limos to the church then all sharing one to the reception  -instead of place cards he wants seating printed on a candy bar wrapper -insisted we serve bacon wrapped hot dogs, bacon wrapped chicken, bacon wrapped shrimp and scallops as apps.  (I hate bacon)-all the guys have to go together to get measured for there tuxes

    This is funny!1. Beach Ceremony2. He doesn't have to wear a tux3. He can be barefoot4. Pretty much complete control over reception music (he is a huge music lover!)5.Video- and choice of videographer6. Chocolate cake (I think I finally convinced him we aren't doing choc. icing as well!!!)7. And veto power over anything I am thinking about that he HATES.  So far we've been ok. ;)

    My husband had no requests.  He wanted to pick out the tuxes, but in the tux store gave up and told me to dress him.

    My FI has requested no pink bridesmaid gowns, he doesn't want to make the groomsmen wear pink vests or bow ties.

    My FI-wanted everyone to ride together in one limo-he was picky about the cake which was funny-and he wanted to pick the tux out but got annoyed with all the choices they kept giving him

    My FI's requests were:- get married in a church (I didn't care either way)- to buy his own tux/no matchy colored vests for the GM- that the guys ride on the limo bus to our pre-ceremony reveal- that we do out epics in the fall (we're doing them Sunday!!)

    He really hasn't had any requests except that he wants to pick out the tuxes, which is 100% fine with me! :-)

    My FI told me he wanted to wear a tux, which was really shocking to me, because he outright refuses to ever wear a tie, and hates wearing suit jackets. and he didnt want to get married in the church, because neither of us are religious and he didnt want to have to lie to get through precana he didnt wantt to have a best man, but I insisted he did and everything else has been "whatever you want babe"

    So far, the only request my FI has is that he be in charge of the honeymoon. He is very savvy with travel plans, so I have complete confidence in him to pick a great cruise for our honeymoon!

    My FI: Wanted to wear a kilt (nipped that in the bud) Wants a seating chart (totally agree on that one) Wants a grooms cake in the shape of a deer head. Wants to have a southern style bbq for bachelor/bachelorette party. Not too bad, except for the kilt, that was just taking his Scottish heritage overboard and is definately not happening.

    my question is what hasn't he requested/discussed..... Cake location flowers DJ Food honeymoon tuxes   the things he has not at all was my dress and the girls dresses:) it is a curse and a blessing..

    Believe it or not, my FI has been a royal pain in the butt about the bridesmaid dresses. Every one I have showed him so far he doesnt like for some reason...I feel like I am in a Seinfeld episode. I'm pretty sure he thinks my girls are all a size 2 like the models based on the dresses he';s picked.
