Hi, Me and my FI have been talking about our wedding and he won't tell me what he is wearing or what colour, is this normal for the groom to do this or should I start to panic. He said he doesn't know what I am wearing so he's not telling me what he is wearing.

Is anything normal with a destination wedding. I think that is sweet. As long as he is coordinated with your colour theme, I think it will be a great surprise for you.

I think it is fine, but just drop hints for him. Little things like, "this would be nice to wear to the wedding" or give him some color options to choose from. =)

I think that it's really awesome that he is wanting it to be a surprise for you! A twist and what excatly makes us destination weddings... nothing is normal or the usual for us!

[YoursTruly]

I being a TYpe A--would want to at least know the color and material because pics are important! It is cool that he wants to suprise you--but see if he can at least share the bare minimum for coordination purposes.

I'm with YT...I would at least want to have him match up with bridesmaids. Tell him he has to have some sort of that colour involved .

Oh god i would be scared. Its cool that he wants you to be surprised but he should at least coordinate with your colors.

DH wanted to do this too and I was terrified. In the end we suit-shopped together, so I knew what it looked like.
Just ask him about the colour and whether it goes with your stuff. OR ask him if he'll share with one of your BMs and ensure that another woman sees what it looks like together Not that all men aren't able to coordinate, but I'd want at least another pair of eyes on his stuff

that sounds like something tom would say to me. in fact, he's still threatening to wear shorts and sunglasses. as you can see from my siggy pic, he is not afraid of color or of standing out, LOL, so i'd personally be a little bit scared!

Thank you for your lovely replies, you have put my mind at rest, I have told him the colour scheme and I must admit he has a pretty good dress sense.
Oh and he say's you are all awesome for saying I don't have to know and yes he said told you so. :-) x
