James, I know you mean well, but you have only touched the tip of the iceberg (or ice sculpture)!

Case in point: I mentioned a few things about Carnation's daughter's wedding to my former fiance the last time I talked to him. I was telling him how similar it was to what all I had tentatively planned, and he completely weirded out! It was NOTHING that he wanted, etc, etc. I told him that it was one more reason why I thought we could never marry, because I had said time after time that I wanted a December wedding, and he had never really listened! and that made him even madder. A simple thing such a the season! I'm all about December weddings - look at how much money you save on church decorations!

I do think that the groom should have some say in the matter, but brides - being taught since they were children - have a better handle on things.

And besides, women can always burst out in tears when the supplier doesn't have the right thing, and thus get her way...
