From a former groom and father of two brides:
Try to understand that your husband to be may not care whether the nut bowl has peanuts or cashews. Many just want to show up, say "I do," and get on with it. It's you they love, not the pagentry.
Honestly, it's not that we/they don't understand that it's a big day, but young girls are socialized to be much more excited about the tiny details. The wedding may not be as important to him as to her -- but that doesn't mean that the marriage isn't. Don't confuse the two.
It's just not worth a knock down-drag out fight over helping to make the decision whether the napkins are purple or white.
When he says something doesn't matter -- don't take it personally. Make a decision and he will love it.
By the way, congratulations, and best wishs for many years of happiness.
