So what do you do if your future hubby is showing no interest in helping you plan what is supposed to be the best day of both of your lives? The trick is finding something that isn't going to completely bore him and trick him into being excited about your wedding. 

How do you do this? 

Food: 

This is the one area that even your fiance is going to have to partake in, whether he's involved in the choosing process or just eats it at the reception. Take him to tastings, ask him his input on sides and appetizers (as these are usually where there are more options). Plus, who doesn't like free food?

Tuxedos/Men's Attire:

Your fiance, whether he likes it or not, has to wear clothes to the wedding. Ask him opinions on his outfit: bow tie or straight tie? White, black, or colored suit and pants? Let him choose his own fun socks and cuff links. 

Readers or other wedding assistants:

Ask him if he has any friends or family members he would want involved in the ceremony whether as a reader or maybe someone to say a prayer or hand out programs.

Registry:

These stores, whether online or brick and mortar, are filled with anything and everything you never thought you wanted or needed. Have fun picking dish patterns, touching soft towels and sheets, and even games or home decor. Go crazy! You never know what someone might buy you!

"Homemaker Registry"

Go to a megastore that offers registry and also a grocery section (Walmart, Target, Costco, Etc.), register for the few things you still might want or need but then fill up the rest of your registry with goods that will help you save money in your first year of marriage. Paper towels, non perishable food items, laundry detergent, pet food, laundry baskets, even things like vitamins, nail clippers, shampoo, extension cords, car fluids- it could be anything! Make sure that you go down the wine and liquor aisle, yep, you can register for that too!


Honeymoon fund!

 Fun websites like Honeyfund.com or Wanderable.com help you plan your perfect honeymoon, then offer several different ways guests can gift you with a honeymoon. They can choose between making a payment for you or buying an activity out of the list you choose!

Gift Cards

There are gift cards for EVERYTHING anymore! You could ask for gift cards for restaurants, movie theaters, grocery stores, online stores, entire malls, even Netflix!

Charitable Giving

Do you and/or your fiance have a cause that's near and dear to your heart? Instead of gifts ask instead for a donation to your favorite charity in your name! You could try Heartful.ly to do an online charity registry!

Collectibles, Hobbies, Business Needs

Do you collect comic books? Coffee mugs? Dolls? Do you enjoy camping? Making model airplanes? Could you use a bookshelf or an automatic pencil sharpener for the office?

And last but not least...

Did you know you could register at Adam & Eve? It takes some confidence, but the possibilities are endless!
