    H2b has been for his fitting today of his suit, him, my step dad and best man have all hired suits and cost around £350 or the of them (probably could have bought them to keep not sure why he rented)
    But anyway he's been to the fitting this morning 9 days before wedding and he hates it,he says it's not so much the suit it's the way he feels all dressed up, he doesn't usually dress up as he's always at work in his work scrubs and then at home in his sweat pants after work, he says he feels an idiot like he's dressed up trying to be something he's not,he's pretty upset about it I don't know what I can say to make it better?
    He's got to wear a suit either way he can't stand at the alter on his sweat pants, anyone else's h2b been like this? Or just mine that's alkward?

    Maybe you could go back with him to the shop and tell him how hansom he looks, and not at all stupid.
    I get he does not normaly wear clothes like this , but you don't get married everyday.

    Lana that's exactly what I said to him! It's only one day and I think once the day comes and all his friends are stood all suited and booted he will feel more at ease.
    He won't let me go with him because he says my dress is a suprise and so is his suit lol.x

    My h2b was a bit like that, he does like suits but a certain style and he hated the way the hired suits hung on him, so we ended up buying ours from river island which has cost more but at least he gets to keep it x

    My hubby is not a dress up person, if he has to wear a suit,the tie is off almost as soon as it can be. He quite enjoyed wearing his suit for the wedding

    My H2B is the other way - he's a joiner so usually in scruffs but he cannot wait to get his suit on. Scrubs up very nicely too ;-) xx

    Ask how he'd feel not being dressed up on the day standing next to you in a gorgeous dress. That should give him food for thought!!
    However silly he feels in it at the moment, I'm sure he'd feel worse being the only person not dressed up!! Xxx

    tell him hes gunna look bloody stupid next to you all dressed up and all your guests dressed up... if he hated the actual suit, I could see his point, but not just suits in general. he needs to get a grip tbqh.

    tbh its a bit late for him to say anything ..... didn't he think about this when he first went to try suits on ? ..... tell him to grow a pair , does he really want to look back at pictures and feel like a pillock if he is in sweats ?


    i`ll come deal with him ......

    Lol I've told him he's no choice he will look great and to stop moaning! Not much more I can do! I think when the day comes and all his mates are wearing same suit because 2 of his other mates went to rent same suit out yesterday I think on the day he will feel more at ease.
    He's been to 2 funerals and worn shirt and trousers but never attended a wedding. X

    If he's just not used to being dressed up, maybe he could put it on a few more times just to get used to it. Is it still in the shop.
