black suit :(

I agree I wouldn't want my h2b in black but if that's what he choose then I'd except it. Because at the end if the day it's his day too x

If you think black will be too funerally what about a very bright and jazy waistcoat- colour match flowers perhaps

He did put the fair point that I'm choosing what I'm wearing so he should be able to do the same. But I havent bought a dress I know he will hate...

He wont wear a waistcoat either

I think the guys get the short straw when it comes to wedding decision making. Ultimately, we get to choose our dress, and generally based on that, the flowers, cake, centrepieces etc. I think the grooms suits are pretty much the one thing they get to choose, and we wouldn't want them influencing our choice of frock, so I'd be happy for my oh to wear black, if that was his preference xx

I don't think black is too funereal.

Has he tried any suits on yet? My H didn't really know what he wanted until he went and tried a load on.

I know you say you'll hate the pics, but I think once the day has happened, when you look back I'm sure you'll be thinking of how happy you were and how great the day was, rather than about what OH is wearing. Also, it's likely that you'll get to have the dominant say in most of the planning, so maybe if he's adamant about wearing black just let him

I think he has a fair point- you got to chose what you you wore, why can't he wear what he wants?! Surely you would much prefer him be happy in what he is wearing. Surely a funeral involes waering a black tie, not just a black suit (people wear black suits all the time to all sorts of things).

I am sorry but I do think you are being a bit bridezilla about this.

My oh picked his own suit and I had no real say. Sadly on the one I think you have to let him make his own choice.

Totally agree, grey all the way what time of year are you marrying and what's your colour scheme. It could look ok

It might be one of those things that's not worth the fight? You'll be marrying the man you love and that's what you'll see in the pics in years to come, not what he is wearing!

Bridezilla IMO, sorry. Trust me, nobody will think your husband looks 'funerally' (ahem) on your wedding day if he wears a black suit.

They only thing I have 'told' boyo is that I want him to be comfortable.

The last thing he will want to do is wear something that he doesn't feel happy in.

I think you should let him wear what he wants, I'm sure you wouldn't like it if he wanted you to wear a certain colour dress.

Why hello there Mr Groom in a Black suit!

I've been to a number of weddings where the groom's party wore black and they looked great. Sorry but I am of the opinion that it isn't really very fair of you to tell your OH what he should wear on his own wedding day - it is his day too! I wouldn't dream of telling my OH what he or his ushers should wear. I have totally handed all of that over to him and my Dad and my OH is loving it.

I love black suits -I want my OH to wear one!!

....and I dont really want him to wear a waistcoat either!!

However, at the end of the day its up to him -hes going shopping with his Dad for his suit and I'm sure whatever he picks will be fine!

You could try showing him pics of weddings with men in black suits and some with menin grey suits to see how he feels when he sees them as a group. I know what you meanabout it being dark, I felt the same before the wedding, but we went in with the knowledge that I picked my dress so OH would pick something that suited him. I went to look and he picked whta he wanted, ended up with medium grey but I would have let him have black if he wanted it. Honestly, all you will care about on the day is seeing him and how gorgeous he looks, I don't think people will find it odd if they are in black.

Hmmmmm........ That'll do niiiiiicely!! ;0)
