My best friend had the same problem. Her husband thought they had plenty of time and was such a procrastinator and didn't want to hear about the wedding. BUT there are plans that need to be made.
What I would suggest is don't discuss things with him. Tell him what needs to be done and ask him if he wants to go/do/call etc. If he doesn't, then plan it yourself. Don't wait for him because then you will end up with nothing done!!
You can also give him a few tasks that need to be done and give him a date that it should be done by. If it is not done tell him you will do it. (Such as reserve the tuxs, plan the honeymoon, book the caterer etc.)
If he doesn't want to help, make it clear that he can't complain about the outcome!!
I had it very easy, my husband only wanted to knwo what was going on, he let me plan the whole thing!
Good luck!

Too many young women get caught up in this one thing (the DAY) to the exclusion of everything else. Maybe he would be happier if you were exerting as much effort into planning the next forty years. He may rather here about your plans to save money for a down payment on your first home, or to start your Ira's.

I'd think twice about marrying someone who is so lacklustre about an important event, what's he going to be like when the baby comes or anything else of significance. Sorry but that was my first thought when I read your question. I know blokes get weird with wedding planning and such but a degree of interest should be expected.

I am going through the same thing. I have just planned everything. He told me "just tell me where and when to show up." So I have everything the way I want it. if he doesnt like it - his problem. Just tell him he has to pick his and bestman/groomsmen suits and his wedding band and that is all he has to do.

Well, I wouldn't include him on the planning then...I know that was probably your plan but he's not counting on planning a dog gone thing! So just tell him you'll plan and he should just cough up what ever money he's supposed to put in.
