Since I'm bored...Opinions please

FH's best man is his dad. No other bridal party. FH's mother wants FH's brother to wear a tux (for purposes of pictures). I'm opposed. What do you think?

ETA: See below for more info.

i don't think it matters ... he could wear a nice black suit and be fine (and save the money) .... suits look good in pictures too

I say nay. My sister was originally going to have her husband wear a tux, but he wasn't in the BP (and well I'm not his biggest fan). I told her no, and for him to wear a dark suit.

Now....here's the kicker - it was already discussed, we said no, FH's mother told him (when I was not in the room), that she's going to tell his brother to wear a tux anyway.

Now....what's your opinion?

That your FH needs to tell his mom no and talk to his brother. I have no tolerance anymore for people. Why can't they mind their own business?

right .... your FH should speak to his mom about the fact that he's not ok with it and that he had better come wearing a suit, not a tux.

whatever. dont worry about what he's wearing. as long as he's not wearing a vest & tie that matches the BM so it looks like he's in a BP, let him wear the tux.

Before I read this I was like ehhh let him. If it was black tie people would be all over the place in tuxes... I think my grandfathers are wearing tuxes to mine... but I hate when people are sneaky like that so I say NO.

You tell his brother he can wear the tux but with pink accessories. So he can stand out.

Unfortunately - pink is part of my color scheme

Well pick a color you hate. You know what I mean. And smile when you say it. Play it up.

Definately No especially since she did behind your back like that after you already said no. if FH wants to pursue it, he should say that you already said no and she shouldn't disrespect you by doing plotting it behind your back.

It's a formal evening wedding, so why can't he wear a tux?

punch her in the nose and if you want me to... we can arrange this. i'm open to making extra money knocking broads off in my spare time.

I would definately put my foot down on this. No, no, no!!!

ETS- I just realized- how old is the brother and why is his mom dressing him for your wedding? Cant he make a decision on what to wear on his own????
