Groomzilla

peachykeen26 · December 2011

Okay, so I try to be calm about this whole wedding thing but good Lord. FI is a bit of a groomzilla about things.... It's kind of annoying and he has no idea what goes into this. At all....
Anyone else have a groomzilla?

ETA: On the brightside, my pictures came in for my modge podge! Moral of that story: don't ever pay for express shipping. hahha

What is he going groomzilla over? IMO, both parts of the couple should "know what goes into this" because it's the bride and grooms day, not just the brides.

How is he a groomzilla, can you please give up more details.

peachykeen26 · December 2011

It doesn't really matter how he is being a groomzilla. That's a little personal.
Bottom line is sometimes I just wanna whack him.

daria24 · December 2011

I have a groomzilla, but only when it comes to the music. He is so anal about what will be played-he pretty much hates everything I listen to. So he is making a playlist of the ONLY songs the DJ can play. Since this is the only thing that he really seems to care about, I've just given in.

FI has been great with everything. The only thing he has put his foot down about is a few weeks ago I wanted to add my 3 best friends to teh wedding party (we are having only family in the wedding) and he said not a chance.

midgetthemighty · December 2011

Sorry, I didn't realize it was a personal issue.

Danidawn20 · December 2011

Okay.

I know my Fiance wants to know what is going on with the wedding, he isn't a groomzilla, so I'm sorry but I cannot relate.

Danidawn20 · December 2011

Sorry, I didn't realize it was a personal issue with the Groomzilla

Yeah. NOt to mention, groomzilla means whatever he's being a brat about is wedding related. Maybe I'm crazy but I don't feel like anything that wedding related can be that personal.

Vagueknotting sucks. Don't tell half of a story unless you are willing to tell the other half.

Jo&Lo83 · December 2011

Mine "thinks" he is being a groomzilla. He acts like he can't do school and plan this wedding...when in reality he has spend all of 5 hours in the past 6 months designing the invitations. I'm not sure he realizes just how many little details I have scoured over the past 6 months, but he sure THINKS he's doing a lot more than he actually is!

Zimsgirl · December 2011

Mine doesn't care about the little details just the big ones.

<div>Thanks!! I saw the pictures of Carter and Sugar...they are so cute!!! Love a boy and his dog. I'm glad you had a wonderful Christmas!</div>

Mine could care less about most parts of the wedding. He tried to be a little more involved early on because he loves planning things, but then we started arguing about little things and he said he's not going to have anything to do with it and that he doesn't care about any of it and won't enjoy the day. Kind of a silly thing to say, but he had every right to say it because I was shooting down most of his ideas and I'm ashamed about it.

Well, he helped find our favors and he's really excited for the cake tasting. He gave his opinion on the STDs and invites that he liked best out of the ones I liked. We both just want to be married, but I'm hoping he enjoys the day. He's gotten over the arguments and tells people that the planning's all up to me.

My FI was a total gromizilla when we first started planning. We got into about everything. He chose the wedding colors watermelon and tangerine ( David's Bridal). He thought they were fushica and orange. So I decided that I didnt want my BM to pay over one hundred dollars for their dress. So chose fushcia and orange becuase, I knew the watermelon and tangerine would hard shades to find ( and tangerine is very brigth). He was upset that I changed the colors and he heard me talking about it to a friend. However, I told him first. He didnt remember and he was upset.

He also told me he wanted me to wear a short a dress (too see my legs)

So my dress, does show my legs but it is long. He also wanted a fish fry for the rehersal dinner. We will not be doing a fish fry, but we will be going to the all inclusive sea food resturant. That is my surprise to him. We had other arguements about the wedding, but, he findly siad whatever, I wanted is fine. So no more GROOMZILLA.

UGH at least your FIs care about SOMETHING?!?! Mine cares about NOTHING. I ask him where he wants to go for the honeymoon, he says you pick. I ask him about cake flavors, he says he doesn't like cake. I ask him what color tie he wanted compared to the groomsmen.. could've cared less..

Ha, he did want to hold the gun while we were registering at BBB and Target. He said he liked being in charge of the scanning. He also "shot" me with it and made "pew pew pew" noises while we were walking around. Okay, James Bond. I guess that's why I still love him!

This. I wish mine was a bit more involved. I tried to get him into it by putting him in charge of the DJ, but now I'm just frustrated at him for not doing it. We are six months out, we need a DJ!! Needless to say I'm taking over that and getting in done ASAP.

<div>Mine too. I spend hours scouring over something, then when I almost make a decision I check it with him and he usually says "ok sounds good". He's being a total non- groomzilla because he's not doing the 2 things he offered to do (hotel block & DJ)!</div>

joyousgirl80 · January 2012

I have a groomzilla. I love him very much but he thinks that only he has good taste and everything I pick out is "tacky." And when I try to explain my ideas and try to get him to see things from my point of view, he just completely shuts down, crosses his arms, and says, "Fine. Then do whatever you want." He doesn't even want to compromise. I'm starting to get a little more than frustated. This is my wedding too. So tough cookies, I'm sticking with the silver chargers darn it!
