Apparently the two had planned to elope in Vegas the following month, so she had her dress, but she arrived at the event wearing black nail polish, her hair respectable, but definitely not primped for "center of attention" positioning; yet she seemed pleasantly surprised.<br /><br />A later news piece revealed that he had spent a year casually querying her on the preferred details _if_ she did have a wedding (kind of cake, colors, etc) so he did his best to create her vision as she told it to him, still...<br /><br />Something this big; I want the fun--and angst--of working together to plan and organize the day. In my opinion, if you can't cooperate long enough to organize your wedding, you probably shouldn't get married. :)<br /><br />Take care!<br />DebDeborah Smallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17582655689614863667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5549706228688887133.post-45433236490889940442011-08-17T04:26:43.999-07:002011-08-17T04:26:43.999-07:00I'm afraid I'd put it in the "presump...I'm afraid I'd put it in the "presumptuous preempt" category. I can't imagine being basically cut out of planning one of the most important days of my life. At least, not without consultation. <br /><br />If she had said, "Yeah, go for it, honey -- you know I hate worrying about those details!" it would be one thing. (Who knows? Maybe this lady had previously expressed disinterest in wedding planning.) But the whole thing smacks of him either being arrogantly sure of her answer or being too afraid to allow her a cooling off period after he got it.Linda G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576828490765434497noreply@blogger.com
