AIBU?
The big lummox I'm married to never ceases to hurt/dissapoint me

I never had a big wedding etc, it was a lovely day, but, not as I had wanted.
Anyway, I decided to have a big bash next year on our 10th anniversary. To invite old friends and new etc.
I've been looking round, chosen invites, venue, balloons, colour scheme etc and I'm in process of ringing round caterers for prices etc.
I was talking to dh about ringing the caterers etc and what sort of flowers and he just turned round and said
"FLOWERS FFS were only in the Keys'
I said I wanted it to look nice and he turned round and said "Well in that case don't ask me anything because I'll moan about the cost"
I told him I was doing it this far in advance as I didn't want to leave it to last minute as caterers etc could get booked up and he shouted "FFS woman I could be dead in 6 months, I can't understand why you want to do it so far in advance"
Hence I turned round and told him to shove it and I won't bother.
I am so Fuffin angry at him.

LOL, I love huggles, but if my idiot husband were to hug me now, I'd knee him in the knackers.
Its not as though I was spending fortune. Food's going to be about 200.00, venue is free, balloons decorations etc about 100.00 inc helium and then about 100 on flowers, seems i'm not worth that. Even my eternity ring (which I chose myself) was less than 100.00 fgs.

NAB3, when he said that, he meant that why on earth am I wanting the room to look nice as were are only going into our local (the keys) not a fantastically glam venue, but, I know everyone and would feel comfy having it there.
Only interest he shows is in sport and making sure his t-shirt is ironed when he goes out.

agree with cod, don't talk to him about it, just go ahead and book what you want. It sounds like he won't even notice anyway, but if it makes you happy then go for what you want. Can you get an enthusiastic friend/member of your family involved? That way you can save all your planning talk for him/her? I know it's unfair, but my dh was totally uninterested in most aspects of our wedding so I just went ahead and did what I wanted and chatted with my mum about it when I fancied a wedding chat.

After taking everything on board what has been said.
I am going ahead and sorting it anyway without asking him anything.
I've booked the caterers (lucky because she said that all saturdays for next june, july and august are booking up fast)
I've also chosen my invites etc so the ball is rolling.

oh god , why do women get so carried away talking about flowers and cakes and all that malarky?
no wonder the poor bloody bloke is getting peed off with the whole situation..
and to plan it all 6 months in advance?
girl, you need to shift your attentions elsewhere.
