While planning a wedding is fun, it is also overwhelming. There is so much to do and sometimes it may feel stressful that you are working so hard and your husband-to-be is, well, not. Let him join in on the wedding day preparations with specific things he will enjoy doing. We all know that picking out the linens will not be at the top of his list, but below are some things he can get into.

His Side of the Guest List

While you can work with your family to get your side of the guest list taken care of, getting his side will definitely require his help. There are likely some people you never thought about (or may not even know) that he wants to be there for your big day.

Drinks

Let your groom pick the wine, beer, and liquor that you will have at your wedding. Suggest featuring a signature drink and let him pick his.

Groomsmen Attire

While you have on lock-down what your bridesmaids will be wearing, the groomsmen are typically not people whose outfits you think about. As part of the wedding party, they too need to look polished and clean. Have your groom work with his buddies to plan their attire for the day so that the party is all on the same page.

Music

The wedding music is a great thing for your future husband to work on. Whether it be a band, a dj, or a playlist, let him have fun with picking the music for your wedding.
