What Grooms Need To Know
by Alex Daniels, Ale
All joking aside, while there are no hard and fast rules to who-does-what when it comes to weddings there are traditions that are somewhat entrenched. The bride is usually responsible for everything that involves the "look" or "theme" of the wedding (wedding reception hall, flowers, wedding invitations, wedding photographer, etc) and very little else. Believe me, those decisions will take her unfathomable amounts of time. I know you're thinking, "How long could it take to pick an invitation out of a book?" but trust me, just let it slide.

Most often, the groom is responsible for:

* Your half of the guest list
* Get the Marriage License
* Blood Tests (if required)
* Limos for the Bridal Party
* Music (Band / DJ)
* Toast at the end of Rehearsal Dinner
* Gifts for your Best Man and Groomsmen
* Wedding Night Accomodations (if you're not leaving immediately on Honeymoon)
* Honeymoon

Schedule the marriage license and blood tests as soon as you can with your fiance (you both have to be there). Since this does require both of you, do this before anything else to get it out of the way before things start to get hectic.

Discuss everything with your fiance and make sure you're both clear on who is responsible for what. You just might impress her by knowing what you've got to do before she does and being proactive. Then again, she might expect this is all common knowledge and act like you're mentally deficient. Women.

Once everything is decided don't slack off. Weddings are stressful for everyone involved and you'll have enough stress coming at you from your "better half" when she starts to melt down as the date closes in so don't even think about procrastinating. Get your list done with plenty of time to spare and stand ready to run interference and help out during the final countdown.

Good luck, you're going to need it!
