DP has been asked to be best man for his brother. Which is nice.
He has also been asked to pay for the cost of hiring a suit to wear to the wedding. Which is not so nice.
He already has more than one suit that would be perfectly suitable to wear to a wedding. Brother wants him to wear tails, and to pay for the privilege.
Dear Mumsnet Jury, please answer two questions.
1- Am I right in thinking that it is quite poor etiquette to expect members of the wedding party to pay to wear clothes that they have had no hand in choosing?
2- Should DP stay quiet or should he say something?
