spoke to my fiances mum this morning and she said oh **** is gutted you are not ordering him a suit - she also said he does not own a pair of smart trousers nor shoes - she said he never has the need to wear them anywhere interesting to see what happens when he gets his formal invite.

you can betcha bottom dollar he'll turn up in a pair of designer name jeans & t shirt .

and everyone will look at him like "why cant he make an effort" as opposed to "look at all those NAMES"

My brothers wanted me to hire full kilt outfits for them.OH isnt even wearing anything that elaborate!I told them just to buy a simple black suit so that they could use it again for job interviews,funerals and ,knowing them,court appearances.
They still cant afford it apparantly because they wont go for anything cheap.I have just told them I will make it easy for them and when my official invites get sent out they wont be getting one.That should save them some money and they can stop worrying about what to wear now.

congratulations on your forthcoming wedding. I hope, for your sake, your husband to be is nothing like his brother.

This guy has got more money than sense. Having just tried to start the budget for my own wedding, there is no WAY that we will be paying for the outfits for our guests - bride and birdesmaid only. ( as well as the groom)

Give him the choice - either he gets it himself or he doesn't come.

Love it! Must tell my son - he works in a clearance Matalan and will quite often buy an outfit to go out for the evening for under a fiver!
