So my OH...

ruth23, 20 October, 2010 at 18:29 Posted on Planning 0 22

...wants to get married wearing a purple velvet suit.

I'm not sure he's winding me up.

He might have been to begin with but I think he's sticking to it now on principle as I told him I would feel ridiculous getting married to someone wearing something like that.

Any other weird and wonderful ideas your OH's have come up with?

    My OH really wanted a cane with a diamond on the end, he very nearly got his own way but I managed to get enough people to convince him he would look like a pimp. He still goes on about it though.

    A penguin suit, as in a penguin costume!!!

    ive told him if i turn up and he is wearing it, there is no way im walking up the aisle! he keeps telling ppl he'll be wearing a penguin suit and they go "oh a proper tux" and he says "no, i'll look like a penguin" they look at me and i have my head in my hands!

    its become such an on going joke, im a little concerned he will tuen up in one over his suit!!! ?

    i can imagine some purple velvet suits can look really smart but i keep thinking of the episode of DTTB when he dresssed up as Willy Wonka!

    My OH has threatened to grow a beard....

    No offence to any facial hair lovers as I know some ppl love them but I have said that if he grows one I'm walking back up the aisle!!

    Mine will be in a skirt!

    Well, a kilt.

    I can't tell you what he originally wanted to wear, but it's not the kind of thing you'd want you mother to see you in...

    Don't say that!

    He keeps saying its his day too and I knowwwww it is and I don't want to be a control freak, but I just think he will look really really silly!

    Lets just hope he's winding me up.

    Loving the penguin suit idea by the way (I love penguins!)

    Also, whats wrong with facial hair? My H2B grew a goatee cos I kept banging on about how good it looked...

    Mine wanted a sword. I told him he'd look like something the tourists would want a photo of in the royal mile in edinburgh.

    But he didnt, he wanted a dirk but told me he wanted a sword so Id cave in at the dirk.

    a dirks smaller but was still a bloody big knife. Bigger than I hoped. my father wasnt that impressed.....

    Did he wear the said dirk with a morning suit?

    Ninja swords might look quite cool...

    Very sneaky of him, but that looks really good actually!

    I wish my OH was wearing a kilt, but hey, maybe it could be arranged...

    Funny thread! Some of the things that think of to wind us up when we need it the most!!

    My OH also mentions a purple velvet suit on far to many occasions that it has got me a little worried. I said he would look like a pimp! x

    Not my OH, but the ushers have asked if they can wear dumb and dumber suits to the reception. And I think they're serious! Interestingly, my OH didn't seem to think this was a problem ?. Although he might have been on the wind up with that one... I'm not going to mention it again in the hope that they'll forget about it in the next two years!
