Everyone knows a girl who is single, and no where close to being engaged, who has her entire wedding planned out. She knows what her dress will look like, she knows how many people she wants to invite, she even knows what her mother-in-law is going to wear. She has the whole shindig laid out. You do not know who she is before hand. There is not a certain type of girl dubbed 'wedding planner.' They may seem like practical girls with practical expectations. They may be the super religious types. They may be the athletic, jock types. You would probably be surprised by a few of the girls that you already know that have their weddings planned.
Personally, I do not have my wedding planned. I do not think it is all that important. It is not for sure that I an even getting married, so it seems like a waste to spend a lot of time researching and thinking about "The Big Day." It seems like it would be preferable to have it open-ended so that the other people, like your fiance and his family, can have a say without a fight. Besides, does it really matter what the napkins look like? Does it matter how many flowers are in the center pieces? Does it matter what color the bridesmaids wear? No one is going to remember every detail and they will not be essential to your marriage later, so it seems silly to be so set on your choices and to spend so much time planning them.
