Answer:
Hi Debbie!
I know it's hard to plan a wedding when you're at two different locations, so find ways to share your ideas via online methods. I just discovered Microsoft Office Live, where you and he -- and your bridesmaids, wherever they are -- can see the plans as they unfold on a 'workspace' you can both log into.
E-mail links to cake designs you like. I'm sure it's not easy for him to be so far away and left out, so my best advice is for you to plan a 'wedding phone date' one night a week to chat about some wedding ideas, like songs he wants to hear, etc.
You'll get through this challenge of the distance and plan the perfect day together! And of course your friends and family may have great ideas to share with you! My books at www.sharonnaylor.net have lots of planning inspiration, and I'm here to answer any specific questions you may have! Our lucky WeddingMapper couples get to ask me questions directly!
