Kevin Jonas of the popular pop group The Jonas Brothers is planning to marry longtime girlfriend Danielle Deleasa next year. But in a recent interview with CTV.ca, the Jonas brother reveals that he won’t be your typical groom who stands around while the bride makes all the decisions. Kevin says he’s all about the planning process.

“We’re in between a bunch of things right now like choosing dates and things like that,” he said. “But we’re just trying to figure everything out and we’re enjoying it; we’re having a blast. I’m definitely into the planning process. A lot of guys, you know, are like, ‘Just go ahead, take it all,’ but no, I definitely want to be a part of all of it as much as I can, of course. It’s fun and brings us together and we get to make a lot of decisions together.”

Already the gossip world is snickering at the reveal, but I think it’s nice when men step outside their stereotypical roles. I actually think the problem isn’t that guys don’t want to help out, it’s that some brides feel like planning a wedding is their absolute duty that is theirs and no one else’s. Perhaps the classic image of the busy bride planning the big day while the groom just sits around and signs checks is going extinct. Dave over at Temple of Groom writes an excellent blog about being a groom who is participating in the wedding planning process, and other sites like Groom Groove and I Am Staggered echo the same sentiment when it comes to how modern guys handle weddings.

What do you guys think? Should more grooms help out in the wedding planning process?
