Post-wedding Task
If your man is really squeamish
about taking part in the wedding
planning, then, let him handle
that which comes right after... the
honeymoon!
Let him pinpoint
where you will go and the things
you can do (drop in a few hints
to help him know what you’d
like too). He can also take the
assignment of finding your place.
Whether you plan on renting,
moving in, buying a house and lot
or settling in a condo, your man
can narrow down the search and
take care of the big (and heavy)
stuff.

A Groomed Bridal Registry
Do not be fooled by the word ‘bridal’. The gifts you register should reflect
what both of you would love to receive. So, while you are keen on having
all these matching linens and silverware, let your groom have a say on
the other vital things you may be missing (Perhaps, a complete tool set
for future fixings in your house? Or an upgraded sound system for movie
nights?).

Handygroom Skills
We can’t classify all men in just a single
category—so, what is your groom’s strength?
Is he an engineer who handles schedules in
construction? Translate that into wedding
planning and you have an official schedule
organizer. Ask him to make a working
schedule for you to be able to meet your
wedding-related deadlines. If he has great
PR skills, let him deal with difficult people. If
he is a businessman, then his contacts can
just be the people you need. A graphic artist
cum groom can easily design your invites.
It’s about identifying how you can naturally fit
your groom into wedding planning, by letting
him take charge of tasks he can relate with,
and not with burdening him with things he
really does not know.
