Couples getting married on July 22, 2023 in Ontario

So an update (cause 2020 has been a YEAR). We booked Millbrook, have our rings, attire, photographer, soft hold on videographer, selected our first choice officiant, are putting together the guestbook (we are drip painting a canvas with a vinyl stencil) and have almost everything for centrepieces. We basically have the last big vendors and the rental stuff left, plus the invites... I think! Good to know cause work for the both of us is crazier than ever and we just dont have the time to plan a whole lot!

View quoted message I find what helps when people are not very open when you seek their opinions is to exaggerate a little bit. Suggest some outrageous ideas that you KNOW won't fly but it could catch his attention and get him to react while getting his head rolling and start spitting out his thoughts on why he would or wouldn't like something.

Thank you! We have been engaged since December 2018 and really took the last year to just chill. I started researching and planning because it's the type of person I am, plus I'm more tech savvy (FH is a little skittish with technology). He's essentially giving me carte blanche which can be stressful because I want his input too, but I get it's a ways away. Sigh! But definitely saving

Congrats on your engagement! With your wedding so far away, one thing you two can start doing is save towards the event. Even a few dollars a day can add up to a nice base fund towards your expenses. Perhaps this will ease his anxiety since it's not spending per say.
